The Acme Little Cleo is a legendary all-purpose spoon, renowned for its ability to trigger strikes across nearly every freshwater and inshore saltwater species. Its reputation is built on a “hump-backed” design that has remained a staple in tackle boxes for decades. Whether you are casting from a shoreline, trolling behind a boat, or jigging through the ice, the Little Cleo provides an erratic, life-like presentation that predators find impossible to ignore.

Key Features:

• Unique Hump-Backed Shape: The distinct curvature of the spoon produces a seductive, wide-wiggling action. Unlike flatter spoons that may simply spin, the Little Cleo mimics a “confused” or wounded baitfish, sending out specific vibrations that signal an easy meal to nearby gamefish.
• Erratic Action: When retrieved, the lure darts and flutters unpredictably. This “erratic” movement is designed to bypass a fish’s caution and trigger its instinctive predatory strike response.
• Extensive Versatility: Available in a massive range of weights and finishes, making it effective for:
• Light Tackle: Trout, Perch, and Panfish.
• Medium/Heavy Gear: Bass, Walleye, and Salmon.
• Big Game: Northern Pike, Muskie, and Striped Bass.
• “Super Glow Bloody Nose” Variant: A specialized technical finish for low-light or deep-water conditions.
• Note: The 2/5 oz. version features a three-dot pattern, while all other sizes feature a single black dot for visual contrast.
