Tipping the scales at 1/2oz (14g), this mid-century spinnerbait features a distinctive silver-plated finish designed for maximum visibility. The lead head is molded into a sleek baitfish profile, paired with a large willow-leaf blade that displays high-contrast black and white stripes and the classic Walleye Wonder 3 stamp. Measuring 4" (10cm) in length, the assembly includes two white pearl spacers that provide a subtle visual accent along the wire shaft. A long-shank, gold-tone single hook is securely attached to the terminal end, showing no signs of age. This specimen, identified by product code 23527, reflects the classic manufacturing standards of South Bend's USA-based production. The condition is rated 5/5, with the silver plating on both the blade and the weighted head retaining a brilliant, mirror-like luster. The wire frame remains perfectly aligned, preserved in a state that suggests it has seen very little, if any, time in the water.
