Three distinct red dots stand out against the bright yellow finish of this 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) metal lure. Often regarded as a staple in the trout angler’s kit, the Luhr Jensen Super-Duper 503 features an unconventional "U"-shaped design. This folded metal construction is specifically shaped to catch water during retrieval, making it effective for casting or trolling on light line for species like perch and pike. Originating from the USA, this specimen (product code 12596) weighs 1/8 oz (4.3 g) and presents in 5/5 condition. The interior of the fold reveals a chartreuse-leaning green, providing a subtle contrast to the primary yellow exterior. A sturdy split ring connects the body to a dark-finished treble hook, which remains sharp and securely attached.
