Museum Archive: Blue Fox Pixee , 3/4oz Nickel / Orange fishing spoon #1904

Hammered nickel finishing on the convex side provides a complex flash that separates the Pixee Spoon from standard smooth-faced lures. Carrying product code 1904, the specimen features the iconic orange simulated salmon egg insert nestled within its heavy-gauge brass body. Weighing in at 3/4 oz (21 g) and measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), it is a substantial piece of tackle designed for long-distance casting even against coastal winds. The reverse side shows a smooth, polished nickel surface clearly stamped with the "Blue Fox PIXEE" branding and weight specifications. Originally a staple of the National Expert Bait company before the brand evolved into Blue Fox in the 1980s, this lure's construction focuses on durability for targeting heavy game fish like salmon, steelhead, and northern pike. The specimen is unused, appearing in a condition of 6, with its original hardware, including the dark-finished treble hook and robust split rings, fully intact. Its dense design allows it to be fished effectively in strong river currents by tumbling into deep holes or via a straight retrieve through saltwater breakers.
