Polished to a bright nickel finish, the surface of this 2 1/4" (6cm) vintage spoon features the distinct stamping of "Johnnie O'Neil's Weed Wing." The design incorporates a teardrop-shaped blade paired with dual stabilizing wings at the front, which help orient the lure during casting. Weighing in at 1/3oz (9g), the metal construction exemplifies the ingenuity of mid-century American tackle from Akron, Ohio. A single upturned hook is protected by a thin wire weed guard, maintaining its utility for fishing in heavy cover. This specimen, assigned Product Code 13926, shows very little wear and carries a 5/5 rating for its clear engraving and bright metal. Johnnie O’Neil patented this design in 1962, a detail visible in the crisp lettering stamped directly into the spoon's body.
