Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile #5, 3/4oz hammered nickel fishing spoon #20908

A weight of 3/4oz (21g) gives this spoon the density needed for long-distance casting or reaching deeper water columns while trolling. Spanning 3 1/4" (8.5cm) in length, the body features a distinct hammered nickel finish on the convex side, which provides a multi-directional flash that mimics baitfish scales. On the smooth reverse side, the authentic Luhr Jensen and Krocodile stamps are clearly visible, marking its USA-made heritage. This specimen, identified by product code 20908, is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a bright and reflective surface with no visible signs of use. The hardware is robust, consisting of a strong treble hook attached via a split ring and a barrel swivel at the line tie to help manage line twist. This versatile design is suitable for casting, trolling, or vertical jigging techniques.
