Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Loco 3 , 3/5oz Gold fishing spoon #17735

A brilliant gold finish catches the eye on this classic spoon, which measures 2 3/4" (7cm) in length. Weighing in at 3/5oz (17g), this Luhr Jensen Loco 3 (Product Code 17735) is designed for both casting and trolling applications. According to traditional specifications, it is intended for use at depths up to 3.3ft (1m), particularly in still-water environments. The stamped scale pattern on the metal body provides a textured surface that interacts with light in the water column. This specimen remains in its original vintage blister pack and is unused. Based in Hood River, Oregon since 1932, Luhr Jensen has a long-standing reputation for utilizing quality components in their manufacturing process, as seen in the hardware and precision metal stamping of this USA-made lure.
