Museum Archive: Eppinger Dardevle Spinnie Weedless, 1/3oz Fire Tiger (9558) fishing spoon #20268

Bright green bars contrasting against a fiery yellow-to-orange gradient make the Fire Tiger pattern on this Eppinger spoon immediately recognizable to any seasoned angler. Measuring 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) and weighing 1/3 oz (9 g), this Dardevle Spinnie Weedless (Product Code 20268) is engineered for precision casting into thick vegetation. The single hook is equipped with a metal wire weed guard, a technical necessity for navigating the lily pads and brush where bass and pike often wait. On the reverse, the brass back construction provides a warm flash that is particularly effective in stained or overcast water conditions. This specimen is unused and remains in its original black and red carded packaging, reflecting the heritage of the Dearborn, Michigan, manufacturer. Proudly made in the USA, this lure maintains the same proprietary die shapes that have defined the Eppinger brand since its 1906 Detroit origins.
