Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #3, 1/3oz Nickel / Blue fishing spoon #13650

Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm) in length, this specific Krocodile Die #3 features a striking blue prismatic checkered tape applied over its nickel-plated body. Weighing in at 1/3oz (10g), this Luhr Jensen classic is a versatile tool for both casting and trolling, particularly favored by salmon and trout anglers. The back side of the lure is clearly stamped with the 'KROCODILE' name and the manufacturer's location in Hood River, Oregon, a hallmark of its American heritage. This specimen, identified by product code 13650, retains its original hardware, including a sharp treble hook and a sturdy barrel swivel secured by split rings. The Nickel / Blue finish remains vibrant, and the overall condition is a high-quality 5/5, showing no wear on the reflective surfaces. The Die #3 sizing makes it a go-to choice for mid-sized predators, offering a slim profile that cuts through the water with ease.
