Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Needlefish 1 UV, 1/16oz Chartreuse fishing spoon #6764

Chartreuse and bright, this Luhr Jensen Needlefish 1 UV (6764) stands out with its fluorescent finish designed for high visibility in deeper or murkier water. Measuring 1 1/2" (3.5 cm) and weighing a delicate 1/16 oz (2 g), the slim profile is specifically engineered to produce a sharply fluttering wobble when trolled at approximately 1.5 miles per hour. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, showing a crisp, scale-patterned insert that illuminates significantly under UV light. While its lightness makes casting difficult, it excels when trolled roughly 100 feet (30.5 m) behind a boat on a light line, ideally no heavier than 8-pound-test. The single hook is securely attached to the tapered body, maintaining the classic USA-made construction that trout anglers have relied on for generations.
