Weighted at 1 oz (28 g), this Eppinger Dardevle is built for long-distance casting and reaching deeper water columns. This specific model, carrying product code 1404, measures 3 1/2" (9 cm) and showcases the high-contrast black and white striped pattern that has been a staple for pike and musky anglers for decades. The lure is unused, still housed in its vintage pink-bordered blister pack from the Dearborn, Michigan, production era. A distinctive feature is the stamped devil head logo on the metal body, which remains sharp and clear against the finish. The hardware includes a sturdy treble hook attached via a robust split ring, typical of the heavy-duty construction Eppinger is known for. With its substantial 3 1/2" (9 cm) profile, the spoon provides a large visual target during a steady retrieve. The packaging itself is well-preserved, identifying it as a genuine product of the Eppinger Mfg. Company, Dept. B.
