Museum Archive: Eppinger Dardevle Imp Feathered, 2/5oz orange UV glows fishing spoon #20304

Orange UV glow pigment coats the face of the Eppinger Dardevle Imp Feathered, transitioning from a fiery orange-red into a bright yellow. Cataloged under product code 20304, the spoon measures 2 1/4" (5.5cm) and weighs 2/5 oz (11g). The construction features a nickel-finished back and includes a red feathered weedless hook guard for fishing through submerged vegetation. This specimen remains unused in its original factory packaging, warranting a condition rating of 6. Eppinger, based in Dearborn, Michigan, has produced these American-made lures since 1906 using proprietary dies for the concave metal body. The polished nickel surface on the reverse side is engineered for high visibility in clear water environments. While casting, the weedless configuration is intended to protect the hook point from snagging on structure.
