Museum Archive: Vintage Williams Mooselook wobbler, 2/5oz orange/black fishing spoon #22317

Eight bold black spots provide a striking contrast against the solid orange base of this 3 3/4" (9.5cm) Canadian classic. Weighing 2/5oz (11g), the Williams Mooselook wobbler is a mainstay for anglers targeting lake trout and landlocked salmon, designed with an elongated profile that mimics slender baitfish. This particular specimen, identified by product code 22317, is in 5/5 condition, with the paint showing excellent preservation and no signs of use. While the Williams brand is often associated with silver and gold plating, this painted version was a strategic addition for varying light conditions. The hardware features an original treble hook and split ring assembly, typical of the high-standard Canadian manufacturing of the era. A gentle curve along the spine of the metal blank defines its traditional physical shape, making it a clean addition for any vintage spoons enthusiast.
