Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile, 3 1/4oz Nickel fishing spoon #4936

Crafted in the USA, the stamped 'LUHR JENSEN KROCODILE' branding across the concave side speaks to the heritage of this heavy-duty casting spoon. Weighing in at a substantial 3 1/4 oz (94g), this specimen is designed for serious distance and depth, whether you are casting from a pier or trolling deep for large predators. The high-polish Nickel finish provides a classic flash that remains a staple for salmon and saltwater anglers alike. Measuring 5" (13cm), the lure features a narrow, aerodynamic body built for long-range delivery even in windy conditions. The hardware on this particular item, identified by product code 4936, remains robust, featuring heavy-gauge split rings and a thick-wire treble hook. This lure is in excellent 5/5 condition, maintaining a brilliant mirror-like surface on both the convex and concave faces. Its thick metal construction makes it equally suitable for vertical jigging over deep-water structure. The deep stamped lettering is crisp, typical of the quality manufacturing seen in earlier Luhr Jensen production runs.
