Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Hot Shot W, gold fishing spoon #18964

Stamped clearly on the underside with the "HOT SHOT-W PAT. PEND." mark, this solid gold-toned spoon showcases the heritage of Luhr Jensen tackle. Measuring 1 1/4" (3 cm), the body features a deep, wave-like contour designed to catch light from multiple angles during casting or trolling. This specimen, identified by product code 18964, is in 5/5 condition, maintaining a bright finish without signs of use. The hardware consists of a gold treble hook and split ring assembly at one end, balanced by a secondary split ring at the line-tie point for reliable rigging. Manufactured in the USA, this metal spoon variant represents the versatile lure family better known for its diving plugs.
