Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Crippled Herring , 3/4oz Silver / Blue fishing spoon #5920

Silver and blue hues catch the light across the sleek, metallic body of this 3/4 oz (21 g) Luhr Jensen classic. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm), the Crippled Herring remains a versatile choice for anglers who utilize casting, jigging, and trolling techniques in both fresh and saltwater. This specimen, identified by product code 5920, features a reflective chrome finish paired with a vibrant blue dorsal accent, a combination designed to mimic the appearance of a distressed baitfish. The Hood River, Oregon, heritage of the Luhr Jensen brand is evident in the heavy-duty construction and the sturdy single hook, which provides reliable performance for larger game fish. As an unused item with a condition rating of 6, it remains factory-sealed in its original vintage blister packaging. The design highlights an slab-style body profile that anglers have relied upon for decades to reach depth quickly while maintaining a profile that draws attention in various water conditions.
