Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Krocodile Stubby, 2/3oz Hammered Nickel fishing spoon #6221

Hammered nickel provides a highly reflective, textured surface that remains a staple for anglers targeting flash in varied light conditions. Weighing 2/3oz (18g), the Luhr Jensen Krocodile Stubby offers a more compact profile than its standard counterparts, designed to sink quickly and cast efficiently even when facing a stiff breeze. This specimen, identified by product code 6221, measures 2 1/4" (5.5cm) and is preserved in its original vintage packaging. The lure is in unused condition, retaining the bright luster of its "Made in USA" manufacturing heritage from Hood River, Oregon. Its design includes a heavy-duty split ring and a sharp treble hook, typical of the rugged hardware Luhr Jensen & Sons utilized for their classic spoon series. The dimpled hammered finish is expertly applied to the convex face to maximize light dispersion during casting or trolling maneuvers.
