Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen ​Lil' Kroc (Krocodile Stubby, 3/16oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #15039

Nickel plating on the back of this 3/16oz (4.5g) metal spoon is clearly stamped with the Krocodile LIL' KROC STUBBY logo, identifying its Luhr Jensen origin. The front face features a distinctive split finish, where half of the teardrop body is coated in a solid blue paint while the other half remains polished nickel. For collectors tracking specific inventory, this specimen is listed under Product Code 15039. Measuring exactly 1 1/4" (3.2cm), this compact metal slab is a product of American manufacturing from the USA, designed for casting and vertical jigging techniques. A classic barrel swivel is attached to the front split ring for line connection, while a sharp treble hook is secured to the tail end. The hardware and finishes are exceptionally well-preserved, reflecting a condition rating of 5/5. The Stubby designation on the stamp refers to its wider, more compact profile compared to standard Krocodile spoons.
