Vintage Luhr Jensen Crippled Herring , 1oz fishing spoon #23284

Stamped clearly into the polished metal, the "1 OZ" weight designation and "CRIPPLED HERRING" name identify this Luhr Jensen original. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm), this 1oz (28g) lure features a classic Rainbow Trout color scheme, blending a soft pink lateral line with iridescent blue highlights and precisely applied black spots over a white base. The construction reflects the durable USA-made quality associated with product code 23284, designed for heavy-duty casting and vertical jigging applications. At the business end, a dark-finished treble hook is attached via a sturdy split ring, showing no signs of age. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a smooth surface and crisp paint detail throughout. Small silver eyes at the head add a touch of realism to the tapered profile, which Luhr Jensen engineered to mimic the silhouette of a wounded baitfish through its specific metal-slab geometry.
