A hammered copper finish catches the light across the surface of this Luhr Jensen classic, providing a texture that mimics the natural scales of baitfish. This particular Krocodile Die #3, identified by Product Code 3966, features a distinct red strip that reacts to UV light, a fluorescent detail designed to stay visible in deeper water or low-light situations. Weighing in at 1/3 oz (10 g) and measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, its narrow and thick profile is characteristic of the series' design for long-distance casting. The front displays a deeply dimpled texture, while the back shows a smooth, polished copper finish that provides additional flash. The hardware includes a factory-installed barrel swivel and a treble hook, both reflecting the durability anglers expect from this brand. Rated at a 4/5 for condition, this spoon remains well-preserved with only light signs of age. Its specific weight distribution produces a steady wobble during the retrieve, making it a reliable tool for targeting salmon or trout in various conditions.
