Museum Archive: Vintage Thomas Buoyant, 3/4oz Golden Trout fishing spoon #4066

Stamped clearly into the gold-toned backside, the 3/4oz (21g) weight designation identifies this substantial 3 1/4" (8.5cm) spoon as a serious tool for larger game. The Golden Trout finish is a striking example of classic American lure craft, blending deep red and orange gradients across a metallic base. Rows of black, red, and yellow dots are meticulously applied along the body, recreating a traditional trout pattern. Rated at 5/5, the surface remains clean with vibrant colors and a bright metal finish. Thomas produced this piece (product code 4066) in the USA, equipping it with a heavy-duty split ring and a silver-toned treble hook. On the reverse, the authentic 'THOMAS BUOYANT' branding and weight stamps remain crisp and legible.
