Green crackle paint provides a striking foundation for the Frog color pattern on this 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) spoon. This Dardevle Midget, identified by product code 0616, features the classic yellow-ringed spots that Eppinger has produced for generations of trout and panfish anglers. Weighing 3/16 oz (6 g), the lure showcases the iconic devil head stamp centered on the concave body, a hallmark of Michigan-based craftsmanship. The bronzed treble hook and split rings are in top condition, earning a 5/5 rating for their preservation. Designed for casting, the uniquely shaped metal body is intended to provide a distinct wobbling motion during a slow retrieve. The paint finish on this specific specimen remains sharp, with no visible wear to the textured green surface or the vibrant yellow graphics.
