A total length of 2 1/4 inches (6 cm) defines the profile of this brass spoon, which is meticulously stamped to resemble a small baitfish. Weighted at 1/2 oz (14 g), the lure showcases a vibrant Rainbow Trout finish characterized by a golden head, an iridescent blue-green back, and a vivid red belly stripe. Precise yellow and red dots are applied across the flank to mimic natural markings. Flipping the lure reveals a polished metal back engraved with 'THOMAS BUOYANT 1/2 OZ' and 'T104,' while it is cataloged under Product Code 4505. The hardware features a reliable split ring and a sharp, silver-finished treble hook. This specimen carries a condition rating of 5/5, appearing exceptionally well-preserved and clean. Manufactured in the USA, the construction demonstrates the heavy-gauge brass stamping typical of the Thomas brand.
