Brass finishes like the one on this 1/2oz (14g) Canadian classic offer a subtle, natural flash that often proves effective in stained water or during overcast days. Measuring 2 3/4" (6.7cm), the spoon features a prominent longitudinal ridge, a technical design element intended to maintain stability throughout various retrieval speeds. The "WILLIAMS WABLER" branding is clearly embossed near the upper split ring, identifying this specimen as part of the 1231 product line. While Williams is famous for silver plating, this warm brass variant provides a different visual profile for targeting pike and walleye. The hardware consists of a treble hook and split rings, which show some light signs of age on the metal surfaces. I would rate the condition of this piece a 4/5, as the spoon's body remains clean and the stamps are sharp. A small hole at the trailing edge connects the hook, allowing for plenty of movement during a steady retrieve.
