Museum Archive: Vintage ​Blue Fox Pixee UV, 1/8oz Gold / Green fishing spoon #16256

Stamped with a textured hammered finish, this 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) brass spoon features a distinctive green simulated salmon egg insert that defines the Pixee legacy. Weighing 1/8 oz (3.5 g), the heavy-gauge body is purpose-built to reach deep pockets in fast-moving rivers or cast long distances into coastal winds. This specific model, product code 16256, showcases the transition of the design from the original National Expert Bait (Nebco) era into the iconic Blue Fox lineup. The condition is rated 5/5, with the gold plating retaining its luster and the plastic insert remaining crisp and vivid. On the reverse, the green insert is smoothly finished with a central slot, ensuring a secure fit within the metal frame. Rigged with durable split rings and a dark-finished treble hook, the lure is prepared for use against game fish like steelhead, trout, or bass. Casting or trolling allows the brass construction to manage depth effectively, whether fished slow near the bottom or retrieved steadily through the water column.
