Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #4, 3/4oz Blue / Nickel fishing spoon #9138

A striking blue honeycomb scale pattern adorns the face of this Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #4, a classic design from their USA production. Tipping the scales at 3/4oz (21g), this 2 1/2" (6.5cm) casting spoon is built for distance and depth, often favored by anglers targeting staging salmon in the Great Lakes. The reverse side features a polished nickel finish, stamped with the Luhr Jensen branding. Identified by product code 9138, the lure exhibits a characteristic wobble due to its thick, narrow profile. It comes equipped with a sturdy barrel swivel at the nose and a sharp treble hook at the tail. The finish on both the blue scale and the nickel back is remarkably well-preserved, reflecting a 5/5 condition rating. Whether cast from a jetty or trolled, the heavy weight distribution allows for consistent deep-water presentations.
