Dipped in a vibrant fluorescent orange finish on the convex side, this spoon stands out in any vintage collection. Weighing in at 1/2oz (14g), this USA-made Luhr Jensen classic features a polished nickel reverse side, where you'll find the authentic 'Les Devis' and 'HOT ROD' stamps clearly visible. The body measures 2 1/4" (5.5cm) and includes a unique neon pink plastic attractor disk mounted on the rear split ring alongside a stout treble hook. Identified by product code 1285, this particular specimen is in 4/5 condition, showing the light signs of honest age expected from a well-kept lure of its era. A small silver split ring at the head serves as the line tie point, completing the simple yet effective hardware layout typical of mid-century casting spoons.
