The Devle-Dog 5400, identified by product code 17475, weighs 1/2 oz (14 g) and measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length. This specific specimen features a polished Nickel Back, a finish traditionally utilized for fishing in clear water to provide high visibility. Produced by Eppinger in Dearborn, Michigan, the lure represents an American manufacturing lineage that stretches back to 1906.

Its oblong, concave body is designed for casting across various depths for species like bass, trout, and salmon.
