Museum Archive: Vintage Hopkins Smoothie Jig Lure UV Glow, 2/5oz Green / Pink / Nickel fishing spoon #10424

Green and pink UV Glow inserts define the visual profile of this classic American-made jigging spoon, designed to remain visible in deeper or stained water. Stamped with the "SMOOTHIE™" trademark on the green side, the nickel body provides high contrast through the water column. Identified by product code 10424, the piece weighs 11g (2/5oz) and measures 5.5cm (2 1/4") in length. Hopkins manufactured these lures in the USA with a focus on durability, equipping them with a robust treble hook and a strong split ring. The finish is in 5/5 condition, maintaining the original luster of the nickel plating alongside the vibrant glow panels. A yellow eye with a black pupil offers a distinct target point near the line tie. Engineered for jigging techniques, the design uses its specific weight distribution for a controlled descent through the strike zone.
