Museum Archive: Vintage Williams Wabler W70, 1oz Gold fishing spoon #3250

Measuring a substantial 4" (10 cm) and weighing in at 1oz (28 g), this classic Canadian spoon carries the heavy-duty presence needed for big water and aggressive predators. The gold finish on this Williams Wabler W70, product code 3250, retains a brilliant shine across its wide, spoon-shaped body. Looking at the face of the lure, the distinct longitudinal ridge is clearly visible—a hallmark design feature engineered to maintain stability during both fast and slow retrieves. This particular specimen is in exceptional condition, rated 5/5, showcasing the high-quality plating that has made the brand a staple in tackle boxes for decades. Stamped with the maker's mark at the top, the lure comes rigged with a sturdy barrel swivel at the line tie and a sharp treble hook at the tail. Originally designed for targeting pike and zander, the Wabler remains the most recognizable profile in the Williams catalog. The brass-toned hardware matches the body's gold hue, providing a consistent visual profile throughout the construction.
