Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Hot Shot W UV, 3/16oz Nickel / Pink fishing spoon #8665

Nickel plating covers the contoured, wavy profile of this 3/16oz (4.5g) metal spoon. Measuring 1 1/4" (3cm) in length, this Luhr Jensen Hot Shot W UV (Product Code 8665) was manufactured in the USA with a focus on deep-water or low-light visibility. While the Nickel / Pink colorway looks like a standard polished finish in natural light, the fluorescent properties of the central stripe provide a distinct orange-pink glow when exposed to UV light. The hardware consists of a single treble hook attached via a robust split ring, designed for casting or vertical jigging techniques. Every aspect of this specimen, from the stamping to the metallic luster, remains in 5/5 condition.
