Museum Archive: ​Luhr Jensen Quiver UV, 1/4oz Glow Smelt fishing spoon #14463

Constructed with a brass core encased in an outer foam layer, this 1/4oz (7g) casting flutter spoon represents a unique piece of Luhr Jensen history from Hood River, Oregon. The Glow Smelt finish on this 2" (5cm) specimen is particularly striking, featuring a scaled texture that reveals a vibrant blue luminescence when exposed to low-light conditions. Identified by product code 14463, this specific lure remains unused in its original packaging, maintaining its factory-fresh appearance. The hybrid foam-and-metal build was designed to provide a specific sink rate and profile that differed from traditional solid metal spoons. This discontinued model is a rare find for collectors of American-made tackle, especially in its current pristine state. The black nickel treble hook is original and remains sharp, secured by a sturdy split ring to the tail of the spoon.
