Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Krocodile, 1oz Orange / Gold fishing spoon #1586

Polished gold surfaces accented by a vivid orange stripe define the look of this 1586 model. Weighing in at 1oz (28g) and measuring 3 1/4" (8.5cm), the Luhr Jensen Krocodile is a heavy-duty spoon engineered for long-distance casting and reaching depths where lighter lures cannot linger. This specimen is unused, appearing just as it did when it left the factory with clear, crisp stampings on the back of the blade. The thick-stamped metal construction is paired with a heavy treble hook and a pre-installed swivel to prevent line twist during retrieves or trolling sessions. When retrieved, the lure produces a wobbling motion that mimics the movement of live bait, making it highly effective for salmon and other predatory fish. Its narrow shape and substantial mass make it a reliable choice for maintaining depth even in moving water or when casting into a stiff wind.
