Museum Archive: Vintage Walleye Specialties Walley Wally spin, 3/4oz Nickel/pink spinning lure #17770

A heavy 3/4 oz (21 g) construction defines this specialized spinnerbait, reflecting the deep-water preferences of its designer, Gary Roach, often called "Mr. Walleye." The nickel-plated blade features a crisp "Wally Spin" stamp and is paired with a lead body finished in a clean nickel/pink gradient. Measuring 4" (10 cm) in total length, the lure utilizes a sturdy wire frame and a single pink bead to provide visual contrast near the oversized yellow-and-black eye. This specimen, identified by product code 17770, remains in 5/5 condition with no visible wear to the paint or the polished metal surfaces. Originating from the USA, the design focus is clearly on stability during trolling or casting for larger predators. The single heavy-gauge hook is securely attached to the wire arm, intended for use with various soft plastic or live bait trailers.
