Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #4, 2/3oz fishing spoon #5969

Featuring a vibrant 'Rainbow/SLV FLUORM SCL' finish, this 2/3 oz (19 g) metal spoon remains in its original retail packaging from 2002. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), the lure showcases a striking color gradient that transitions from hot pink at the nose to silver-scaled white, then bright yellow, and finally a deep orange near the split ring. This specific specimen, identified by product code 1003-058-0486, is unused. The heavy-duty construction includes a stamped metal body and a pre-rigged barrel swivel to manage line twist during casting or jigging. Luhr Jensen & Sons produced this piece in Hood River, Oregon, utilizing a scale pattern texture that reflects light through the translucent fluorescent paint. The back of the package includes the original catalog offer and a production date of 10/21/02, adding a clear timeline to its provenance.
