Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Wob-L-Rite, 1/8oz nickel fishing spoon #18921

A deeply hammered nickel finish defines the face of this 1/8oz (3.5g) casting spoon, creating a high-flash surface that remains a favorite for trout and panfish. Measuring exactly 1" (2.6cm) in length, this specimen (Product Code 18921) features the classic "WOB-L-RITE" stamp clearly visible on its smooth reverse side. The American-made construction utilizes a heavy-gauge metal that provides significant density for its small size, aiding in distance during casting. Both the textured front and the polished back are in excellent shape, warranting a condition rating of 5/5. The hardware includes a strong treble hook and dual split rings, ensuring it is ready for a collector's display or a light-tackle session. This particular nickel variant highlights the traditional manufacturing techniques used by Acme to produce durable, high-visibility lures. The teardrop profile is wider toward the hook end, concentrating the weight for a stable orientation during a steady retrieve.
