Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #3, 1/3oz Nickel / Golden Hologram fishing spoon #6543

A vibrant Golden Hologram checkerboard pattern sits prominently on the convex face of this 1/3oz (10g) Nickel-plated spoon. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm), the Krocodile Die #3 (Product Code 6543) is stamped with the "Luhr Jensen" and "Hood River, Ore" branding on the concave side, highlighting its Pacific Northwest heritage. The construction features heavy-gauge metal suited for long casting or trolling, paired with reliable hardware like the barrel swivel and split-ringed treble hook. Rating a 5/5 for condition, the spoon maintains a bright, clean surface and perfectly adhered holographic scales. Its narrow profile is a deliberate design choice by Luhr Jensen to assist in reaching deeper water columns where salmon and large trout typically hold. The contrast between the polished silver-tone nickel and the reflective gold insert provides a distinct visual profile under various light conditions.
