A distinct hammered finish covers the dual-tone surface of this classic spoon, which features a half-and-half Hammered Gold and Silver color scheme. This specific Williams Wabler W50, identified by product code 10494, weighs in at 1/2 oz (14 g) and measures 2 3/4" (6.7 cm) in length. Genuine silver plating on the lighter side is a hallmark of the Canadian manufacturer, a tradition tracing back to the company's early production years in 1914. The signature longitudinal rib running down the center is designed to provide stability during retrieval at both fast and slow speeds. This specimen, rated at 5/5, presents a very clean appearance with its original hardware and a sharp black treble hook. Designed primarily for targeting pike and walleye, the Wabler has remained a staple in tackle boxes since full-scale production moved entirely to Canada in 1978. Small split rings at both ends allow for secure attachment and hook placement.
