Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile, 1/3oz White / Red / Brass fishing spoon #14096

Measuring exactly 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length, this specific Krocodile spoon is a versatile choice for both freshwater and light saltwater duty. The front side features a clean white finish accented by a bold red stripe along one edge, while the reverse reveals a solid brass body stamped with the Luhr Jensen brand name and the Krocodile model name. At a weight of 1/3 oz (9 g), its compact, narrow profile is designed for distance when casting from piers or boats. The hardware remains in great shape, featuring original split rings, a sturdy barrel swivel on the leading eyelet, and a bronze-finish treble hook. Identified by product code 14096, the spoon shows a well-preserved surface with a condition rating of 5/5. This particular specimen highlights the manufacturing quality associated with Luhr Jensen's USA-made era, providing a reliable option for targeting salmon or trout. The interplay between the painted white face and the brass back offers a high-contrast visual that performs well in various water clarities.
