Abu Garcia Toby 7g — Legendary action since 1956

The Abu Garcia Toby in 7g Black Back Minnow delivers the enticing wobble that has made this spoon a global bestseller for nearly 70 years. Compact at 5.7 cm and lead-free, this lightweight casting spoon is a versatile choice for targeting trout, perch, and other freshwater predators at 1–3 m depth.

Proven enticing action

The Toby's distinctive shape produces an irresistible swimming action that triggers strikes from a wide range of predatory fish. Its balanced design ensures stable flight and immediate action on retrieve, making it effective in streams, rivers, and lakes alike.

Ideal for light-tackle setups
