Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen, 3/16oz Hammered Steel fishing spoon #11747

Measuring exactly 1" (2.5 cm) in length, this compact spoon exemplifies the classic American craftsmanship associated with the Luhr Jensen brand. The Hammered Steel finish provides a multi-faceted surface that reflects light from various angles, a design choice often favored for light-sensitive fishing conditions. Weighing 3/16 oz (5 g), the lure is well-suited for ultralight spinning tackle or vertical jigging applications where a small profile is required. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 11747, remains in excellent 5/5 condition, retaining the integrity of its original plating and metalwork. The hardware includes a sharp black-finished treble hook and heavy-duty split rings at both ends for secure rigging. Manufactured in the USA, the solid metal construction provides a substantial feel despite its diminutive size.
