Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Super-Duper 501, 3/32oz Nickel fishing spoon #8018

Weighing in at a light 3/32 oz (2.3 g), the Super-Duper 501 features a polished nickel finish designed to flash throughout the water column. This specific specimen, identified by product code 8018, showcases the classic 'U' shaped metal body that Luhr Jensen crafted in the USA. One side of the 1 1/4" (3 cm) frame is accented with a square-patterned prismatic tape that provides a holographic contrast to the metal. A deep red tip at the line-tie provides a traditional strike point often found on these vintage pieces. The reverse side remains a clean, polished metal surface where the brand markings are clearly stamped into the nickel. All original hardware, including the split ring and treble hook, appears well-preserved, warranting a 5/5 condition rating. A bronze-finished treble hook is attached to the rear bend of the lure's unique profile.
