A polished gold finish defines the convex side of this classic casting spoon, catching light effectively to signal predators from a distance. Weighing 3/4 oz (21 g) and measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, this specimen is built for distance casting and reaching deeper water columns. The reverse side features a clean nickel plating, prominently stamped with "DARDEVLE DETROIT U.S.A.," a clear mark of its heritage from the company’s original manufacturing home. This specific Dardevlet, identified by product code 6804, is in 5/5 condition, appearing unused with a mirror-like reflective surface on both sides. The sharp treble hook is firmly attached via a robust split ring, demonstrating the high-quality hardware standards of Eppinger’s American-made lures. While the gold side provides high visibility, the nickel-colored back offers a subtle tonal flash, a combination typically favored by anglers for clear water conditions.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
