Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g), this Luhr Jensen Krocodile #3 represents a classic piece of American-made hardware from the Hood River, Oregon era. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, the spoon is finished in a nickel/red UV pattern that pairs a highly reflective polished surface with vibrant orange-red accents along the edge. The reverse side features the distinct deep-stamping of the manufacturer's name and location, a hallmark for collectors of vintage Luhr Jensen gear. An original pink plastic attractor tab is still present on the rear split ring, complementing the red UV accents and adding a visual trigger near the treble hook. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 18804, maintains a clean 5/5 condition with the factory-applied colors remaining crisp and the nickel plating showing minimal signs of handling. A barrel swivel is pre-installed on the forward split ring to help manage line twist during casting or trolling.
