Hammered nickel textures catch the light across the 2 1/2" (6.5cm) body of this heavy-gauge brass spoon. Weighing 3/4oz (24g), this Blue Fox Pixee UV, identified by product code 5179, is a robust piece of tackle crafted for the high-impact demands of salmon and steelhead fishing. The vibrant red simulated salmon egg insert serves as a focal point, integrated into the design to aid in long-distance casting even through coastal winds. This particular specimen is USA-made, a nod to the brand's heritage when it was still National Expert Bait (Nebco) before the 1980s rebranding. The UV Glow and Fluorescent properties of the finish are specifically tailored for visibility in deeper water or stained conditions. Flipping the lure over reveals the crisp 'Blue Fox PIXEE' stamp and weight markings on the polished reverse side. The hardware, including the dark-finished treble hook and split rings, remains sturdy and shows no signs of degradation. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, appearing as a clean example of a classic trophy-taking design.
