Tipping the scales at 3/4 oz (21 g), this spoon is built for reaching those deep staging grounds where standard lures fall short. Measuring 3 1/4" (8.5 cm), the Luhr Jensen Krocodile Die #5 is dressed in a classic Metallic Perch finish, featuring a bright orange belly that transitions into green and gold sides with bold vertical barring. This specific specimen, marked with product code 1944 and SKU 1003-034-0814, hails from the brand's well-known production era in Hood River, Oregon. The construction utilizes a thick, stamped brass body designed for high-density casting and stability in current. It comes equipped with a heavy-duty barrel swivel at the nose to mitigate line twist during steady retrieves. The lure is unused and remains in its original vintage retail packaging, preserved well for a collector’s shelf or a tackle box. This heavy-profile spoon is a staple for those targeting salmon and large predatory fish that respond to a distinct wobbling motion at depth.
