Museum Archive: Other Wheeler Spoon, 3/16oz Red / White fishing spoon #12101

Japan is the origin of this vintage find, which showcases a striking red and white finish across its 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) length. Weighing in at 3/16 oz (5 g), the Wheeler Spoon reflects the distribution era of the Dura-Pak Corporation out of Sioux City, Iowa. The specimen is cataloged under product code 12101 and remains preserved in its original blister pack, protecting the paint and the silver-toned hardware. Because the condition is a 6, the lure is unused and presents as it did when it first left the factory. The header card features a nostalgic landscape graphic typical of the Wheeler Deluxe Fishing Tackle line. A sturdy split ring connects the metal spoon to the hook, designed for reliable utility during casting or trolling sessions.
