Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile, 3/16oz Hammered Gold fishing spoon #4264

Hammered gold surfaces provide a distinctive texture on this 3/16 oz (6 g) Luhr Jensen classic, designed to catch light from multiple angles even in stained water. Measuring 1 1/2 inches (3.5 cm) in length, the Krocodile features the dense, narrow profile that makes it a favorite for reaching significant distance on the cast. On the smooth reverse side, the “LUHR JENSEN KROCODILE” stamp is cleanly impressed, identifying this piece as a vintage Oregon-made lure. The spoon is rigged with a factory split ring and a bronzed treble hook, showing only very minimal signs of age, which supports its 5/5 condition rating. Identified by product code 4264, the solid brass construction ensures it sinks quickly to the target zone when targeting trout or panfish. A single pre-drilled hole at the tapered end allows for easy connection to a snap or leader.
