Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Needle fish 2, 3/32oz Fire Tiger fishing spoon #17319

A vibrant Fire Tiger finish with a honeycomb scale overlay covers the thin, elongated profile of this 2" (5 cm) trolling spoon. Weighing in at 3/32 oz (3 g), the Luhr Jensen Needlefish 2 is a classic design hailing from Hood River, Oregon, as noted by the stamp on its brass-toned reverse side. The product code for this specific piece is 17319. It features a genuine Indiana flicker blade attached to the rear split ring alongside a sharp single hook, providing high-contrast flash during a steady troll. The stamped markings on the back clearly state the model name and size "2" alongside the manufacturer's name. This specimen remains in 5/5 condition, showcasing the bold green, yellow, and orange gradients with crisp black vertical stripes. The top of the lure is rigged with a robust metal split ring for secure line attachment.
