Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Pixee , 1/2oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #1858

A vibrant blue plastic insert mimicking a cluster of salmon eggs sits at the heart of the heavy-gauge brass body on this casting spoon. Stamped clearly on the reverse is the Blue Fox logo alongside the PIXEE PAT text and the 1/2 oz (14 g) weight designation. This specimen measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length and features a hammered nickel finish that reflects light efficiently. The history of this design traces back to the National Expert Bait company before it became the Blue Fox brand we know today in the 1980s. Cataloged under product code 1858, the lure remains in top-tier shape with a condition rating of 5/5. Its heavy construction makes it a reliable choice for punching through coastal winds or staying deep in river pools. The hardware includes a sharp, dark-finished treble hook secured by a strong split ring, ready for game fish like steelhead or salmon.
