Museum Archive: Vintage Williams Whitefish, 3/5oz Silver fishing spoon #0952

Measuring 3 1/4" (8cm) in length, this Canadian-made spoon shows the honest wear of a lure that has seen plenty of time on the line. The silver finish on this Williams Whitefish, product code 0952, carries visible surface marks and light oxidation across the body, earning a condition rating of 3/5. Weighing 3/5oz (17g), the metal retains its core reflective quality, which is characteristic of the genuine plating used by the manufacturer. This specimen has been updated with a new treble hook and includes a barrel swivel at the top eyelet. It's a solid example of the traditional elongated spoon design that has been a staple in northern tackle boxes for decades.
