Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Pixee, 1/2oz fishing spoon #15213

Hammered nickel plating creates a high-flash surface on this 1/2oz (14g) casting spoon. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm), this Blue Fox Pixee is a quintessential example of heavy-gauge brass construction, identified by Product Code 15213. A distinctive feature of this specimen is the textured, bright orange plastic insert, designed to simulate a cluster of salmon eggs. The reverse side bears a crisp stamp indicating its "PIXEE PAT" status and "GT-30" model designation. Manufactured in the USA, the lure is fitted with original split rings and a sharp treble hook. The metal is bright and the finish is clean, earning a condition rating of 5/5. This design is historically significant, originating with the National Expert Bait company before becoming a staple of the Blue Fox line. Its density makes it a reliable choice for reaching deep river pockets where it can tumble and roll through heavy current.
