Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #3, 1/3oz Hammered Brass / Red fishing spoon #2870

Hammered brass texture creates a multifaceted surface on this 1/3 oz (10 g) casting spoon, accented by a bold red stripe along the side for increased visibility. This Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #3, identified by product code 2870, features the classic brand stamping from Hood River, Oregon, on its polished interior face. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the lure's thick-walled construction is designed for those who need to reach distant targets from the shore or jetty. The hardware is complete with a top-mounted barrel swivel and a treble hook paired with a bright red attractor tab. This specimen is in excellent shape, maintaining a clean finish that merits a condition rating of 5/5. Anglers often rely on this specific profile for its ability to cut through wind and sink quickly to reach staging fish in deeper water columns.
