Museum Archive: Blue Fox Pixee, 1/4oz Nickel/yellow fishing spoon #16801

Vibrant chartreuse inserts mimicking salmon eggs sit at the heart of this classic metal casting spoon. Weighing in at 1/4oz (7g) and measuring 2" (5 cm) in length, this Blue Fox Pixee remains a staple for steelhead and salmon anglers who rely on the density of its heavy-gauge brass body. The specimen listed under product code 16801 features a distinct hammered texture along the edge of the nickel-finished body, providing a sharp contrast to the solid yellow center. Under low-light conditions or UV, that central insert reveals its true utility, glowing brightly to signal fish in deeper holes or stained river currents. This particular lure is preserved in its original packaging and is unused, warranting a condition rating of 6. While Blue Fox later became a part of the Rapala family, this piece represents the durable USA-made construction that established the Pixee as a trophy-taker for everything from pike to saltwater species. The treble hook is still shielded by the vintage blister pack, ensuring the hardware remains in its original state.
