Contrasting yellow, green, and black spots are meticulously applied over a bright red enamel on the face of this 1 1/2" (4cm) spoon. Bearing product code 4461, this Thomas Buoyant features a classic American design with a distinctive offset shape near the line tie. Weighing 3/16oz (5g), the lure is built on a stamped metal body that transitions to a clean, white-coated underside, a color scheme specifically cataloged as Red White Trout. The specimen is in 5/5 condition, appearing exceptionally well-preserved from its red face to the original treble hook and split ring hardware. This lure remains a hallmark of USA-made tackle history, often favored for its utility in light-tackle casting scenarios where a smaller profile is required.
