Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Kokanee King​, 1/16oz copper fishing spoon #22939

Stamped clearly into the metal on the concave side, the "KOKANEE KING U.S.A. LUHR JENSEN" lettering marks this as a genuine piece of Pacific Northwest fishing history. Measuring 1 1/2" (4 cm) and weighing a light 1/16 oz (1.7 g), this copper-finished spoon is designed for finesse trolling applications. The specimen, identified by product code 22939, features a distinctive secondary blade at the rear, attached via a split ring that also holds the dark-finished treble hook. This specific lure shows minimal wear, with its copper surface maintaining a warm, even tone, resulting in a condition rating of 4/5. The small tail blade provides a different visual profile than standard one-piece spoons, while the original split rings remain tight and secure.
