Museum Archive: Loco 3 Luhr Jensen, 3/5oz Nickel / Hologram fishing spoon #5693

Nickel and Hologram finishes catch the light across the hammered surface of this 2 3/4" (7 cm) spoon. Identified by product code 5693, this Loco 3 model from Luhr Jensen is unused and arrives in its original retail packaging. It weighs 3/5 oz (17 g), providing sufficient mass for casting into still waters or slow trolling at depths near 3.3 ft (1 m). The design is particularly suited for targeting pike in conditions where they may be less active. Originating from the brand’s history in Hood River, Oregon, this metal lure features a distinct teardrop shape and is rigged with a single treble hook. Each scale-like indentation on the nickel-plated body is meant to mimic the natural flash of baitfish.
