Vivid neon pink covers the classic oblong body of this specimen, a finish engineered for high visibility in various water conditions. Produced under product code 14687, this Eppinger Dardevle Spinnie UV weighs 1/3 oz (9 g) and measures 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) in length. When exposed to ultraviolet light, the surface reacts with a powerful orange-red glow, a specialized feature for deep-water casting where natural light is limited. The iconic black devil head logo is stamped clearly near the top, representing the Detroit-based heritage Lou Eppinger established in 1906. This American-made spoon features the traditional concave design and is equipped with a clean treble hook attached via a robust split ring. Rated at a 5/5, the lure shows an exceptionally preserved finish and maintains the quality expected from the Dearborn, Michigan, factory. Each component, from the weight of the metal to the proprietary paint, reflects the functional simplicity that has defined the brand for over a century.
