Museum Archive: Vintage Heddon Sounder UV, 3/16oz UV Glow in UV light, Fluorescent fishing spoon #3641

Weighing in at a nimble 3/16 oz (5.5 g), this vintage trolling spoon showcases Heddon's historical focus on high-visibility finishes for deep-water applications. The 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) body is finished in a bright fluorescent green accented by four distinct black spots on the convex face, while the reverse side maintains a polished silver surface. Manufactured in the USA, the Heddon Sounder UV is identified by product code 3641 and features a series of four holes along the body's midline, a design element intended to modify the lure's path through the water column. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, displaying remarkably clean paintwork and a sharp, single-point hook secured by a heavy-duty split ring. Because it is engineered with UV Glow properties, the finish is highly reactive to ultraviolet light, making it a specialized choice for trolling at depths where natural light fades.
