Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Rok't Devlet, 1 1/4oz Red / Ivory fishing spoon #0027

Weighing in at a substantial 1 1/4 oz (35g), this heavy-duty casting spoon provides the mass required for deep water presentations or reaching distant targets. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm), the Rok't Devlet model carries the classic Red / Ivory enameled finish, featuring a cream-colored center stripe flanked by vibrant red. The concave surface is clearly stamped with the 'Rok't Devlet' name and the recognizable Dardevle logo, reflecting the manufacturing traditions Eppinger established in Michigan over a century ago. Its construction includes a robust treble hook attached via a sturdy split ring at the tail, intended for heavy-hitting species. This specimen remains in 4/5 condition, showing well-preserved paint and hardware that highlight the durability of American-made tackle from the mid-20th century. The stamped line tie hole at the nose is clean and ready for a snap swivel or leader.
