Glittering hex-cut silver and gold flakes densely cover the white enamel finish of this 2" (5 cm) American-made spoon. This Eppinger Devle-Dog 5300 features a robust bronze-finished treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring, adhering to the high manufacturing standards the company has maintained since moving to Dearborn in 1959. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), the metal body is stamped with the proprietary dies that define the brand’s historic profile. The white and metallic flake combination is particularly effective for clear-water visibility. This specific specimen, cataloged as product code 17844, remains in 4/5 condition with the finish retaining its original luster. Casting this lure into deeper columns allows the concave surface to work through the water during a slow, steady retrieve.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
