Museum Archive: Vintage Acme Wob-L-Rite, 3/16oz Copper fishing spoon #2663

Stamped clearly into the copper metal, the 'WOB-L-RITE' branding marks the underside of this specialized spoon. Measuring 1" (2.5 cm) and weighing 3/16 oz (5 g), this Acme-manufactured lure is an excellent example of American craftsmanship. The copper finish offers a distinct alternative to more common flashy plating, providing a more natural flash in various light conditions. It comes rigged with a sturdy treble hook attached by a stainless split ring, maintaining the hardware standards expected from a vintage USA piece. Cataloged under product code 2663, the lure is in 4/5 condition, exhibiting minor surface wear and small dark spots while remaining fully functional for a collection or active use. The specific curvature of the metal body and the placement of the line tie hole are designed for stable casting performance.
