Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile, 1/3oz Nickel fishing spoon #15083

Nickel plating across the 1 1/2" (4 cm) body of this Luhr Jensen Krocodile provides the high-flash visibility required for deep-water fishing. This specimen, carrying product code 15083, features the distinct brand stamping on the inner curve and weighs in at a versatile 1/3 oz (9 g). Maintaining a 5/5 condition, the metal surface is highly reflective, showcasing the quality of the original USA production. The hardware setup includes a robust barrel swivel and a sharp treble hook, both connected via high-strength split rings to manage line twist and secure strikes. Its thick, narrow profile is engineered for long casts from piers and jetties, reaching staging fish in deeper waters. This model is weighted to produce a consistent wobble during a steady, moderate retrieve.
