Museum Archive: Vintage Weedless Johnson Silver Minnow , 1/3oz Green / Orange / Nickel fishing spoon #16039

Vibrant green, yellow, and orange gradients over a distinct honeycomb scale pattern define the face of this vintage weedless spoon. Weighing in at 1/3oz (9g) and measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm), the metal body is engineered with a thicker center to maintain an upright orientation during the retrieve. The reverse side features a nickel finish stamped with "Jamison's Silver Minnow," marking it as a classic production piece from the USA. This specimen, assigned product code 16039, is in excellent shape with a condition rating of 5/5. A sturdy metal weed guard shields the single hook, specifically designed for navigating dense lily pads or timber without hanging up. The construction relies on a specialized copper and zinc alloy base that ensures a consistent center of gravity.
