Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Krocodile, 1/2oz Hammered Nickel / Red fishing spoon #1537

Hammered nickel textures on this 1/2 oz (14 g) spoon create a multifaceted flash designed to catch light deep in the water column. Identified by product code 1537, the Luhr Jensen Krocodile sports a vibrant fluorescent red stripe along its inner edge, adding a high-visibility strike point to the otherwise bright metallic body. This American-made lure measures 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) and remains in unused condition, with all hardware—including the nose swivel and tail treble hook—retaining its original finish. On the concave interior, the "KROCODILE" and "LUHR JENSEN" stamps are sharp and clear, indicating a well-preserved vintage piece. Its narrow, thick-stamped design makes it a heavy hitter for distance casting when targeting salmon or large trout. The bronze treble hook is securely attached via a split ring, ready for the water.
