Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Krocodile, 3/4oz Hammered Gold / Red fishing spoon #1534

Hammered gold texture catches the light across the main body of this 3/4 oz (21 g) Luhr Jensen classic. A vibrant red accent stripe runs along the edge of the convex side, providing a sharp color contrast against the metallic finish. Measuring 2.5" (6.5 cm) in length, this Krocodile spoon features the iconic brand and model stamp deeply embossed on its polished gold underside. It remains unused, showing only the subtle signs of long-term storage common for vintage tackle of this era. Heavy-duty hardware is a hallmark of this model, including a robust treble hook and a barrel swivel attached via a strong split ring to prevent line twist during casting or trolling. The 1534 product code represents a versatile weight class that offers significant casting distance when targeting Great Lakes salmon or coastal predators. Because of its narrow, dense construction, it descends through the water column to reach fish holding in deeper layers.
