Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger JR Flutter Devle 3100, 3/16oz Fluorescent Yellow / Red / Nickel fishing spoon #1610

Fluorescent Yellow and Red polka dots immediately catch the eye on this JR Flutter Devle 3100, a thin-gauge trolling spoon carrying the product code 1610. Made in the USA, the lure measures 3 1/4" (8 cm) and weighs in at a light 3/16 oz (5 g). The polished Nickel back is stamped with the Eppinger name and their Dearborn, Michigan origin, a detail often sought by collectors tracking the brand’s history. Near the trailing edge, a small green devil head graphic sits just above the split ring and treble hook hardware. This specimen maintains a 5/5 condition, showing no signs of wear on the vibrant paint or the reflective metal reverse. Designed specifically for trolling, the spoon’s slender 8 cm body provides a distinct visual profile in the water column.
