Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Lil' Kroc (Krocodile Stubby), 3/16oz Gold fishing spoon #15806

Stamped clearly into the polished gold surface of this Luhr Jensen classic is the "Krocodile Lil' Stubby" designation, a nod to its compact yet substantial design. Measuring 1 1/4" (3.2cm) and weighing in at 3/16oz (4.5g), this USA-made spoon offers a denser profile than the standard Krocodile, making it a specialized choice for precision casting or reaching deeper water columns in smaller streams. The deep gold finish remains brilliant across the entire lure body, reflecting the 5/5 condition of this particular specimen. Looking at the hardware, the split rings are tight, securing a sharp treble hook and a smooth-turning swivel that helps prevent line twist during retrieval. Identified by product code 15806, this Lil' Kroc showcases the high-quality plating and manufacturing standards Luhr Jensen maintained for their spoon lineups.
