Vivid chartreuse-green paint coats the slim 3/16 oz (5 g) frame of this classic spoon, a design that has been a mainstay in the Pacific Northwest for decades. Measuring 2 1/2" (6.5 cm), the body of this Needlefish 3 features a textured scale pattern along its edges, which surrounds a highly reflective, prismatic center strip designed to catch filtered light at depth. This specific specimen, identified by product code 23530, was manufactured in the USA by Luhr Jensen and remains in 5/5 condition with no visible signs of use. The hardware consists of a sturdy single hook secured by a split ring at the tail and a simple wire loop at the nose for line attachment. Its thin-blade construction is purposefully built for trolling applications where a slender profile is needed to mimic small forage fish.
