Museum Archive: Hydro Lures Weedless Hydro Spoon, 1/2oz White / Black fishing spoon #9466

Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the silver-finished body of this specimen is accented by a black scale pattern along its lower half. Weighing 1/2 oz (14 g), the lure's weighted design ensures it lands upright on every cast, a technical necessity for a surface tool intended for navigation through thick lily pads and moss beds. This unused Hydro Lures find, cataloged under product code 9466, retains its original white multi-strand vinyl skirt. Manufactured in Huntsville, Alabama, by the Plasform, Inc. division, the lure features a specialized weedless construction meant for slow-speed retrieves across heavy structure. The original backing card highlights its ability to be worked without sinking or hanging up, preserving the hardware and finish in their original state.
