Stamping on the reverse of the metal body identifies this piece as a Dearborn, MI production, dating it after Eppinger's 1959 relocation. Weighing 1oz (28g) and measuring 3 1/2" (9cm), the spoon displays the quintessential Red Devle color scheme—a deep red finish split by a clean white diagonal stripe. Its condition is a notable 5/5, characterized by well-preserved paint and a bright, reflective underside. This specific Dardevle, listed under product code 19922, features the classic concave oblong shape and comes rigged with a stout treble hook. The polished nickel back is clearly stamped with the model name and the weight designation. Primarily used for casting and trolling, this lure is designed to produce a wobbling action when retrieved through the water. The high-contrast color pattern provides visibility for predatory fish regardless of water clarity, making it a reliable choice for targeting pike or muskies.
