Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #3, 1/3oz Hammered Nickel / Red fishing spoon #2199

Hammered nickel textures characterize the surface of this 1/3 oz (10 g) specimen, catching and scattering light to mimic a baitfish. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, this Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #3, product code 2199, carries a striking red accent stripe along its curved edge. The reverse side features the stamped 'KROCODILE DIE #3' and 'LUHR JENSEN HOOD RIVER, ORE' marks, confirming its Pacific Northwest pedigree. This lure is unused. A small red plastic flasher tag is attached to the rear split ring alongside the treble hook, providing a focused visual trigger. The head is rigged with a robust barrel swivel to facilitate its signature wobbling motion during a retrieve or while trolling. This particular Die #3 model reflects the high-quality plating and heavy-gauge brass construction synonymous with vintage Luhr Jensen production.
