Stamped with the distinctive DIE #3 mark, this 1/2 oz (14 g) casting spoon reflects the storied Luhr Jensen heritage from Hood River, Oregon. The polished gold backside features clean, crisp engravings while the front showcases a vibrant Fire Tiger pattern with green, yellow, and orange gradients overlaid with dark, mottled accents. This specific Krocodile, cataloged under Product Code 5085, is built with a hammered texture on its face intended to maximize reflection. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the body is outfitted with a top-mounted swivel and a sharp treble hook at the tail. The UV and fluorescent properties of the finish are specifically designed for high visibility in various light conditions. Maintaining its original luster, the lure is assigned a condition rating of 4/5. Its narrow, thick profile is a technical choice for maximizing casting distance or maintaining depth during a steady troll.
