Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle King Flutter Devle 3200 UV, 1/3oz Red / Nickel fishing spoon #5214

A vibrant, matte red paint coats the convex surface of this 1/3 oz (9 g) trolling spoon, providing high visibility for various water conditions. Measuring 4" (10 cm) in length, the Eppinger Dardevle King Flutter Devle 3200 UV, identified by product code 5214, features a polished nickel reverse side that provides a sharp metallic contrast. The stamped logo of the legendary Michigan manufacturer is visible on the red face, a mark of the proprietary dies used in their Dearborn facility since 1959. Equipped with a large treble hook on a sturdy split ring, this American-made hardware is built specifically for trolling techniques. Rated at a condition of 4/5, the lure shows only light signs of previous use while the finish remains bold and intact. The narrow, elongated profile is finished with a clean line-attachment hole at the lead end.
