Museum Archive: Vintage Len Thompson Northern King 28 UV, 1/2oz Silver (Silver Plated) fishing spoon #3530

Weighing in at 1/2oz (14g), this Canadian-made spoon features a genuine silver-plated finish designed specifically for light reflection at greater depths. The Len Thompson Northern King 28 UV, cataloged as product code 3530, is a brass-constructed trolling lure measuring 3 3/4" (9.5cm). Introduced originally in 1984, the Northern King line utilizes the silver plating to ensure the metal remains visible as it descends. This specific specimen displays a hammered texture on the face, adorned with a blue and white tape pattern that provides UV reactivity for visibility in deeper water columns. Turning the lure over reveals a clean, honeycomb-stamped silver back. The hardware consists of a sturdy treble hook attached via a split ring, matching its dedicated trolling design. In 5/5 condition, the silver plating remains bright and the UV accents are well-preserved across the length of the body.
