Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Pixee UV, 3/4oz Nickel / Pink fishing spoon #4065

Hammered nickel surfaces give this 3/4 oz (24 g) Pixee UV its distinctive flash, a hallmark of the Blue Fox brand. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) in length, this model 4065 is built with a heavy-gauge brass body designed to withstand the rigors of saltwater and fast-moving river currents. The centerpiece of the lure is the fluorescent pink insert, which simulates a salmon egg and is specifically designed to be UV reactive for visibility in deep or murky water. On the reverse side, you can find the clean 'Blue Fox PIXEE PAT.' stamp along with the weight marking, confirming its heritage. The hardware is in excellent state, featuring a robust split ring and a sharp, rust-resistant treble hook. In terms of condition, this specimen rates a 5/5, showing a bright, reflective finish and a vibrant, intact insert. For the angler, its density makes it a prime choice for long-distance casting even into coastal winds, while the construction allows it to tumble and roll near the bottom during a retrieve or while trolling in lakes.
