Brass construction provides a solid, heavy-duty feel to this Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #4, a piece that showcases the utilitarian design of vintage Hood River, Oregon tackle. Weighing in at 3/5 oz (17 g) with a total length of 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), the spoon features a narrow profile suited for long-distance casting or cutting through deeper water columns. A striking red prismatic tape is centered on the front face, offering a sharp visual contrast against the brass body. The hardware includes a barrel swivel at the head and a treble hook at the tail, both attached via sturdy split rings. On the reverse, the factory stamping clearly identifies the "Krocodile" name alongside the Die #4 designation and the Luhr Jensen branding. In its 4/5 condition, the brass body has developed a warm, even tone while the red holographic inset remains well-adhered and reflective. This specific specimen is identified by product code 4770, representing a classic era of metal spoon manufacturing.
