Exactly 1/3 oz (10 g) in weight, the Cop-E-Cat 7300 UV is balanced for consistent casting and trolling performance. Its profile is finished in a high-visibility fluorescent yellow accented by five bold red dots, a pattern specifically designed to react under ultraviolet light. As seen in the secondary image, the UV-active coating glows a bright green, which helps the spoon remain visible to predators in deeper or stained water where natural light fades. The face is stamped with the iconic Eppinger devil logo, a hallmark of the Dearborn, Michigan manufacturer that has been in operation since 1906. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), this specimen carries product code 7396 and is in 5/5 condition, showing no signs of age or wear on its painted surface. The hardware consists of a heavy-duty metal split ring and a sharp, silver-toned treble hook, both original to the piece.
