A weight of 2/3oz (19g) gives this spoon the necessary density for long-distance casting even against a stiff lake breeze. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm), the Luhr Jensen Krocodile #4, identified by Product Code 17860, is a versatile piece of American-made tackle. The specific color scheme combines a bright yellow perimeter with a textured gold scale pattern in the center to catch and reflect light as it moves through the water column. Designed with a thicker and narrower body than standard spoons, it is frequently utilized for trolling or jigging when targeting staging salmon or large trout. This construction allows it to reach depths where predators are likely to be feeding. The hardware consists of reliable split rings and a sharp treble hook mounted to the lure. This specimen sits at a 4/5 condition rating, maintaining a clean appearance with only minor character marks on the yellow paint edges that testify to its time in a tackle box.
