Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Little Jewel UV, 3/16oz Yellow fishing spoon #11314

Measuring 1 1/4" (3.3 cm) in length, this vintage spoon represents a classic design from the Luhr Jensen catalog that hasn't been produced for many years. The yellow finish is complemented by a textured holographic prism tape on the face, designed to catch light from multiple angles during the retrieve. Under low-light conditions, the paint reveals its UV and glow-in-the-dark properties, shifting to a vibrant green as visible in the darkness. This 3/16 oz (5 g) Little Jewel UV, identified by product code 11314, was manufactured in the USA and features original hardware including steel split rings and a sharp treble hook. Suitable for both casting and jigging techniques, the specimen is in 5/5 condition, appearing exceptionally well-preserved with vibrant colors and clean metal surfaces. Luhr Jensen’s historical focus on light-reflecting finishes is clearly evident in the prism and glow-paint combination of this specific specimen.
