Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Kokanee King, 1/16oz fishing spoon #11527

Tipping the scales at a delicate 1/16 oz (1.7 g), this specialized tool for landlocked salmon represents a classic design from the Luhr Jensen stable. The 1 1/2" (4 cm) metallic body features a high-visibility fluorescent orange tip that glows under low-light conditions, providing a distinct visual trigger. Attached near the tail is a silver sonic blade stamped with the "Luhr Jensen Hood River Oregon" hallmark, which adds an acoustic element to the setup. Labeled under product code 11527, the specimen is in excellent 5/5 condition and carries a single siwash hook for reliable hooksets. This USA-made lure utilizes a split ring at the nose for line attachment and a fish-tail silhouette to mimic natural forage.
