Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Hus-lure, 1/16oz Red / Brass fishing spoon #15314

Weighing in at a delicate 1/16 oz (2 g), this compact spoon is a classic USA-made Luhr Jensen design. The front face features a bright red finish accented by a silver holographic checkerboard tape insert that catches light effectively under the water's surface. On the reverse side, the brass base is clearly stamped with the "HUS LURE" name, showcasing the clean, well-preserved metal that earns this specimen a 5/5 condition rating. Measuring exactly 1" (2.6 cm) in length, the lure is equipped with a split ring at the nose and a bronzed treble hook at the tail. The narrow profile of the Hus-lure, product code 15314, was specifically engineered to cut through surface currents in streams, allowing it to reach deeper pockets. It is highly effective for casting in moving water, where the angler can let the current animate the spoon or add movement by twitching the rod tip to make it flutter back.
