Museum Archive: Blue Fox Pixee UV, 1/2oz Nickel / Pink fishing spoon #4558

Heavy-gauge brass forms the core of this 1/2 oz (14 g) spoon, a hallmark of the Blue Fox Pixee line's ability to punch through coastal winds and reach deep river pockets. The Nickel/Pink finish features a classic hammered texture on the metal body, while the fluorescent pink insert mimics the visual profile of a salmon egg. Stamped clearly on the metal is the Blue Fox name alongside the PIXEE model designation and the weight rating. This specimen is unused and remains in its original packaging, preserving the factory shine and the integrity of the plastic insert. Under UV light, the 'UV Bright' coating is designed to stand out in murky water or low-light conditions. Under product code 4558, this 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) spoon represents a staple for anglers targeting salmon, steelhead, or pike. It comes equipped with both a pre-attached treble hook and an optional single hook. Originally rooted in the designs of National Expert Bait (Nebco) before becoming part of the Blue Fox brand in the 1980s, the heavy construction allows it to tumble and roll naturally into holes during a river retrieve without washing out in strong currents.
