A vibrant holographic checkered green tape is applied to the polished nickel surface of this 2 1/2" (6.5 cm) spoon. The heavy-gauge metal construction brings the total weight to 3/5 oz (17 g), providing the density required for long-distance casting or maintaining depth during a steady troll. On the reverse side, the metal is clearly stamped with the iconic 'KROCODILE' name, the 3/5 oz weight designation, and the Luhr Jensen manufacturer mark from Hood River, Oregon. This specific specimen, identified by product code 23161, remains in excellent 5/5 condition with a mirror-like finish and fully intact prism tape. The hardware consists of a robust treble hook attached via a split ring, which also carries the signature Luhr Jensen red plastic flipper tag at the tail. This small red accent serves as a localized strike point against the larger silver and green profile of the lure's body.
