Museum Archive: Vintage Andy Reekers UV, 1/4oz Yellow / Green / Nickel fishing spoon #4691

Measuring exactly 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length, this classic trolling spoon features a bold, high-contrast finish designed for maximum visibility. This Andy Reekers UV model, weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), showcases a distinctive front face split vertically between bright yellow and vibrant green, punctuated by a series of large black dots. The back of the lure is finished in a solid yellow UV-reactive coating, a technical choice intended for deep-water trolling where light penetration is limited. Rigged for immediate use, it includes a large single hook and a top-mounted barrel swivel connected by sturdy split rings. Manufactured in the USA under product code 4691, the nickel base provides a durable foundation for the paintwork. This specimen is in excellent 5/5 condition, showing a well-preserved surface typical of a high-quality vintage find. The paint remains vibrant across the stamped metal body, which is a hallmark of the Reekers design for salmon and trout anglers.
