Stamped with the "LOCO" name and size "2" on the reverse side, this nickel-finished spoon reflects a design pedigree that originated with Glen Evans before the model's production was eventually handled by Luhr Jensen. Measuring exactly 2" (5 cm) and weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g), the Loco 2 features a polished nickel surface that provides a high-flash profile. This specific specimen, identified by product code 17700, is crafted for casting and trolling techniques, proving particularly useful when targeting pike in depths reaching 3 ft (1 m). The hardware consists of a sturdy treble hook secured by a split ring, maintaining the original American-made utility from its USA origins. The 5/5 condition preserves the clean, reflective finish without visible wear or aging. A distinctive teardrop shape transitioning into a narrower neck is a hallmark of the Loco series, engineered for performance in environments without heavy current.
