Acme Little Cleo Fishing Lure - Gold/Orange 1/3-Ounce

The Acme Little Cleo Fishing Lure is a compact, 1/3-ounce plug designed to cut through water with a distinctive hump-backed silhouette. Its eye-catching gold and orange finish glints in both sun and shade, while the smooth finish and sturdy build resist wear from routine casts and brushes.

This combination makes the Little Cleo a compelling option for anglers seeking a versatile freshwater lure that can entice curious predators across various conditions.
