Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Rattling Kwikfish K15 UV, 1oz fishing lure #20470

Chrome plating accented by high-visibility chartreuse tips defines this Luhr Jensen Rattling Kwikfish K15, a staple for targeting heavy hitters like salmon, steelhead, and pike. On the bill, you’ll find the "K15" size designation clearly stamped, while the flank bears the classic "KWIKFISH" mark. Weighing in at 1oz (28g), this 5" (12.5cm) lure is built for both casting and trolling, capable of reaching depths up to 16.4ft (5 m) when trolled. This particular specimen, identified by product code 20470, features an internal rattling system to add an acoustic element to its presence in the water. The finish shows some light character from its time in a tackle box, earning it a solid 4/5 condition rating with only minor surface scuffing visible on the metallic coating. Originating from the USA, the construction includes robust hardware with two silver-tone treble hooks secured by sturdy split rings. It remains a prime example of Luhr Jensen's legacy in producing lures that demand attention from aggressive predators.
