Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Red Eye Junior, 1/2oz Bronze (Brass) fishing spoon #14364

Bronze (brass) finishes like the one on this 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) spoon were designed to provide a flash that mimics natural prey in various water conditions. Weighing 1/2 oz (13 g), the Eppinger Red Eye Junior, identified by product code 14364, remains a staple for targeting pike and bass. Those iconic red 'eyes' are actually faceted beads secured through the metal body, a signature design element from the USA-based manufacturer. The stamped brass body shows some light surface wear from years of storage, giving it a well-maintained 4/5 condition rating. The hardware includes a sturdy treble hook attached via a split ring, ensuring the lure is structurally sound for casting or trolling.
