Fluorescent orange paint accented by seven bold black dots characterizes the 'Ladybug' finish on this vintage Dardevle Dardevlet Feathered Weedless spoon. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) and weighing 3/4 oz (21 g), this Eppinger model, designated by product code 20969, is built with a weedless design for fishing near vegetation. The front side displays the stamped devil head logo between the rivets, while the reverse reveals a polished nickel plating. A single hook is protected by a metal wire weed guard, which is securely anchored to the body. Enhancing the lure's profile is a cluster of deep red feathers tied to the hook. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, showing a very clean painted surface and bright metal on the back. Two rivets visible on the face serve as the mounting points for the internal hook and guard hardware, a construction style used by the Michigan-based company for decades.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
