Acme Little Cleo Spoon C140/MPR – Freshwater & Saltwater Lure, 1/4 oz, Metallic Perch (Orange/Yellow/Green)

Meet the Acme Little Cleo Spoon, a compact lure designed for both freshwater and saltwater adventures. Its distinctive hump backed silhouette creates a seductive wiggle as it darts through the water, giving the impression of a fat baitfish in distress or confusion. The result is a lure that can attract strikes from a wide range of fish while remaining easy to cast and retrieve for extended sessions.

The Little Cleo action is the star: a threeway appeal that blends motion, flash, and timing to draw curious predators from structure and open water alike. The design emphasizes a lively wobble that remains balanced, so you get consistent performance even with lighter line or during long retrieves. This combination can help produce an enticing presence without excessive line twist during a day on the lake, river, or estuary.

• Line twist free action with a smooth, lifelike wobble
• Streamlined aerodynamic body for longer, more accurate casts
• Precision machined construction for durability
• Effective in both fresh and saltwater environments
• An appealing blend of motion, flash, and timing to entice bites
• Threefold appeal that triggers curiosity and strikes from wary fish
• Light tackle compatibility for trout, smallmouth bass, and pickerel
• 1/4 oz weight suited for versatile casting and subtle hits

The lure is finished in Metallic Perch with vibrant orange, yellow, and green accents. The finish catches the light in bright sun and murky water alike, helping visibility without overpowering the fish. Built to withstand repeated casts and grabs, the finish remains durable through many excursions.

Versatility matters for anglers who face changing conditions. Use the Little Cleo in streams, lakes, rivers, or nearshore zones where active forage is present. Its size and balance enable comfortable casting with light tackle, while its action remains lively enough to provoke a reaction from a variety of species.

How to fish with the Little Cleo

Begin with a steady, medium pace to allow the lure to perform its characteristic wiggle. Short pauses can imitate a fleeing baitfish when fish hold tight to structure. In clear water try a slower tempo, while in stained or windy conditions a faster pace can help the lure flash through the zone.

• Cast beyond cover, then reel with a steady pace to let the lure dive and wiggle
• Experiment with slow, medium, and fast retrieves to match water clarity and activity

Target species range from trout and smallmouth bass to pickerel. The Little Cleo is a versatile choice for anglers exploring different waters, offering a consistent, lively presence without promising guaranteed results.
