Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Krocodile Stubby UV, 2/3oz Hammered Nickel / Red UV Glow in UV light, Fluorescent fishing spoon #6222

Flashing a bright red glow under ultraviolet light, the fluorescent finish on the face of this metal spoon distinguishes it from standard vintage hardware. Carrying the product code 6222, this Krocodile Stubby measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) and represents a shorter, thicker profile compared to the standard Luhr Jensen lineup. The weight of 2/3 oz (18 g) allows for high-density presence in the water, complemented by a Hammered Nickel finish on the reverse for high-flash visibility. Originating from the company's era in Hood River, Oregon, this particular USA-made variant is a less common discovery for collectors today. The lure is unused and remains preserved in its original retail blister pack. Fitted with a robust single hook and stout split rings, the 2/3 oz (18 g) design is intended for casting or vertical presentations where staying deep is a priority.
