Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Dardevle Rok't Devlet UV, 1 1/4oz Red / Black / Nickel fishing spoon #10062

Tipping the scales at 1 1/4 oz (35g), this substantial spoon provides the heft needed for long-distance casting or reaching deeper strike zones. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in length, the Dardevle Rok't Devlet UV features a classic red face punctuated by bold black dots and the unmistakable stamped devil head logo. What sets this Eppinger model, identified by product code 10062, apart is the specialized UV-reactive finish. While it appears as a traditional red pattern in daylight, it produces a vibrant glow when exposed to UV light, which is particularly useful for maintaining visibility in stained water or at greater depths. The back of the spoon is finished in polished nickel to provide a contrasting flash during the retrieve. This specimen is unused and remains in 5/5 condition, featuring original hardware including a robust treble hook and a clean split ring. The 'Rok't Devlet' lettering is clearly applied across the face, identifying it as part of the brand's specialized glow-series of lures manufactured in Michigan.
