Stamped with the distinctive "HOOD RIVER, ORE." mark on its underside, this Luhr Jensen spoon is a testament to classic American tackle design. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm) and weighing 1/2oz (14g), the Krocodile Die #4 is engineered with a thicker, narrower body compared to standard spoons, aiding in long-distance casting through heavy winds. The Nickel / Red color scheme consists of a high-polish chrome finish complemented by a segment of red prismatic scale tape that catches light. Identified by product code 4240, this specimen is in 5/5 condition, featuring a bright, reflective surface and original components. Technical data for this model notes a consistent wobbling motion during the retrieve, a characteristic that makes it highly effective for targeting salmon and other predatory fish when casting or trolling. The lure is rigged with a robust, darkened treble hook and heavy-duty split rings.
