Museum Archive: Vintage Johnson Lujon, 1oz Nickel fishing spoon #11094

Stamped clearly into the nickel-plated metal is the "JOHNSON LUJON 1" identifier, marking this as a genuine piece of American fishing history. At 1oz (31g), the lure’s heavy, slender body is built specifically for deep-water vertical jigging or long-distance casting into the wind. The 3 1/2" (9cm) profile features a unique, asymmetrical twist in the metal, a design hallmark intended to catch the light at multiple angles. This specimen remains in a clean 4/5 condition, showing the high-quality Nickel finish that Johnson was known for during their USA production years. A notable detail is the bright red tubing found on the shank of the treble hook, which serves as a classic visual strike point for predators. Fitted with heavy-duty split rings at both the head and the tail, this lure, product code 11094, reflects the rugged construction of mid-century jigging tackle.
