Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Crippled Herring, 1 1/2oz Pink Pearl fishing spoon #10071

A striking Pink Pearl finish coats the 2 3/4" (7cm) body of this vintage Luhr Jensen metal jig. Weighing 1 1/2 oz (42g), this specimen is found in its original retail packaging, and its condition indicates the lure is unused. The head section features a realistic red eye and a distinct red gill slash, giving it the characteristic look of a wounded baitfish. Identified by product code 10071, the lure comes factory-rigged with a stout silver treble hook and a large attachment snap designed to handle aggressive strikes during casting, jigging, or trolling. Produced in Hood River, Oregon, the packaging highlights the model's versatility for both freshwater and saltwater environments. The heavy metal construction and lifelike profile were engineered to provide a specific swimming motion while maintaining a high-visibility profile in the water column.
