Museum Archive: Eppinger Dardevle Spinnie, 1/3oz Black / White / Nickel fishing spoon #7775

High-contrast black and white vertical stripes define the classic look of this Eppinger spoon, a design choice intended to create a sharp visual silhouette in the water. Weighing in at 1/3oz (9g) and measuring 1 3/4" (4.5cm), this Dardevle Spinnie, cataloged under Product Code 7775, is sized for versatility across various freshwater environments. The iconic devil head logo is stamped cleanly on the central white stripe, a hallmark of the brand's identity since operations moved to Dearborn, Michigan. This specimen is unused and remains housed in its original red and white carded packaging. The reverse side features a polished nickel finish, providing a bright flash to complement the dark upper pattern. Its construction utilizes a robust treble hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring, reflecting the dependable craftsmanship expected from Eppinger’s proprietary manufacturing dies. Optimized for casting, the spoon’s compact profile and density facilitate long-distance reaching toward shoreline structure or submerged vegetation.
