Museum Archive: Blue Fox Pixee, 1/4oz Nickel / Fluorescent Orange fishing spoon #1338

Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), the heavy-gauge brass body of this specimen is finished in a bright hammered nickel designed to maximize underwater flash. A centerpiece of the 2" (5 cm) profile is the patented Fluorescent Orange egg-sac insert, a distinct visual attractor meant to simulate natural salmon roe. This Blue Fox Pixee, identified by product code 1338, arrives in unused condition, with the nickel plating and plastic insert showing no signs of wear from its time in the original packaging. The spoon’s weight-to-size ratio makes it an asset for distance casting or holding depth in the heavy currents of steelhead and salmon runs. Standard hardware includes a stout treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring, reflecting the durable build quality common to the USA-manufactured era. The high-contrast combination of the metallic finish and the internal orange glow creates a silhouette highly visible in varying water clarities.
