Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Lil' Kroc (Krocodile Stubby), 1/4oz Nickel fishing spoon #16494

Weighing in at 1/4 oz (7 g), this compact Luhr Jensen spoon features the iconic "Stubby" profile that offers a denser, shorter silhouette compared to the standard Krocodile series. The Nickel finish is preserved in original, unused condition, reflecting the high-quality plating Luhr Jensen was known for during their production years in Hood River, Oregon. This specimen, identified by product code 16494, measures 1 1/2" (4 cm) and remains mounted on its vintage card which highlights its place among the "Legends of Luhr Jensen." The hardware consists of a single split ring and a sharp treble hook, typical of the construction used for casting or jigging in both fresh and saltwater environments. This specific lure carries a condition rating of 6, indicating it is unused and has been kept in its original packaging. The card back provides a nice touch of history, referencing the brand's 1-800 customer service line and its dual-country presence in the USA and Canada.
