Luhr Jensen Lil' Kroc (Krocodile Stubby), 3/16oz gold fishing spoon #18727

Constructed from solid brass for a dense, compact profile, this metal spoon weighs in at 3/16 oz (4.5 g). Known among vintage enthusiasts as the Luhr Jensen Lil' Kroc (Krocodile Stubby), this lure has been out of production for approximately 25 years. Labeled with Product Code 18727, it features the classic gold finish that has remained a staple for anglers targeting trout and panfish. The "Stubby" variant offers a wider body than the traditional Krocodile, designed for distinct movement when casting or trolling. This specimen is unused, preserved perfectly in its original yellow and orange bubble packaging from the Hood River, Oregon era. The hardware includes a high-quality swivel and a sharp treble hook, typical of the Made in USA quality of the time. The backing card identifies the color as Brass, matching the warm metallic tone of the body.
