Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #3, 1/3oz Nickel / Red fishing spoon #6505

Stamped with the "LUHR JENSEN" and "KROCODILE" brand marks on its reverse side, this 1/3 oz (10 g) spoon is a versatile tool for both casting and trolling. The heavy-gauge brass body measures 2 1/4 inches (5.5 cm) in length, providing a compact profile that cuts through the air for long-distance deliveries. This particular model, identified by product code 6505, features a polished nickel finish accented by a vibrant pink prismatic tape on the front face, designed to maximize flash. High-quality hardware is a hallmark of this USA-made lure, including a barrel swivel attached to the forward split ring to help manage line twist and a sharp, sturdy treble hook at the tail. The condition of this specimen is a clean 5/5, with the reflective surfaces and prismatic tape remaining bright and the hardware showing no signs of use.
