Weighing in at 3/16oz (5g), this American-made spoon features a classic Trout / Silver finish that mimics the appearance of a small rainbow trout. The 1 1/2" (4cm) body is meticulously stamped with the Thomas Buoyant name and patent information on its polished silver underside. Its convex face is decorated with a vivid green back and bold black spots, separated by a soft pink lateral stripe. Rated at a 5/5 condition, the paint remains crisp and the metal bright across the asymmetrical frame. Distinctive scale-like serrations are visible along the edge, a technical detail designed to increase light reflection during casting or trolling. The lure is rigged with a robust split ring and a sharp, bronzed treble hook. Bearing the product code 5822, this piece is a well-preserved example of traditional USA craftsmanship.
