Museum Archive: Vintage Red Eye Lures Red Eye Evil Eye, 2/5oz gold/red fishing spoon #23135

At 2/5 oz (12 g), this American-made spoon provides a solid heft for long-distance casting or controlled trolling. The 3" (7.5 cm) gold-plated body features a distinctive red gemstone inset that acts as a focal point for predators. This particular specimen, cataloged as Product Code 23135, reflects the classic manufacturing style of Red Eye Lures from New York. Looking at the hardware, the single hook is securely attached via a heavy-duty split ring at the top, while a second split ring at the nose handles the line connection. The stamped branding on the reverse side is crisp and legible, marking it as a genuine Evil Eye. This lure remains in excellent 5/5 condition, showing a bright, reflective surface across its entire curved profile.
