Museum Archive: Blue Fox Pixee UV, 3/4oz Fluorescent Pink / Hammered Gold fishing spoon #4618

Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) from tip to tail, this heavy brass spoon offers the density needed for reaching deep river pockets where large salmon and steelhead often hold. The hammered gold finish provides a multi-faceted flash, complemented by the distinct fluorescent pink egg-sac insert that serves as a high-visibility strike point. Weighing 3/4 oz (24 g), this Blue Fox Pixee UV (Product Code 4618) is engineered for long-distance casting even into stiff coastal winds. Blue Fox, which carries the design legacy of the National Expert Bait Company (NEBCO), constructed these lures to withstand corrosive saltwater environments and heavy river currents. You can see the quality in the factory-rigged Rapala VMC black nickel treble hook. This specimen also includes a separate siwash hook tucked inside the packaging, catering to anglers fishing in single-hook-only zones. This lure is unused and remains sealed in its original vintage blister pack. The packaging is well-preserved, showcasing the iconic "Pixee" logo and the specific "Egg-Sac Insert" callout on the front. On the reverse, the instructions describe how the lure is intended to tumble and roll into pockets when fished in rivers, or can be pumped during lake retrieves to vary the presentation.
