Found in vintage fishing gear lot, heavy brass hinged spout of some kind, quarter for scale
No one at a fishing flea market knows what this is but it was found in a lot of antique and vintage fishing gear. Stamped on back patent applied for and Oswego NY. It’s hinged along the midline.

No clue what it actually is, my first thought is it’s being used for something is wasn’t made to do…
For example: It could have been used as a plug knocker, seems like it would be easy to slip onto the line when opened. Would need a big lure not for it to be lost right away though.
