Vintage South Bend Walleye Wonder 3 Spinnerbait, 1/2oz gold spinning lure #22629

A polished gold-plated blade serves as the focal point for this vintage South Bend setup, stamped clearly with the Walleye Wonder 3 moniker and bold black stripes. Weighing 1/2 oz (14 g), the lure is built on a sturdy wire frame that measures 4" (10 cm) in total length. Three translucent, salmon-colored beads are threaded onto the wire just above the clevis, providing a subtle visual accent against the metallic finish. This American-made specimen, identified by product code 22629, features a long-shank gold hook and a weighted head section on the upper arm to maintain orientation. The condition is a remarkable 5/5, with the gold plating retaining its original luster and the stamped lettering remaining crisp. Designed specifically for walleye techniques, the teardrop blade and hardware assembly reflect the classic mid-century manufacturing standards of the USA.
