A mirror-like Nickel finish covers this classic spoon, designed for a slow retrieval speed that keeps the lure visible to sluggish gamefish in summer conditions. Two faceted ruby-red beads are wired into the metal body, acting as light-catching eyes that give the Red Eye Wiggler its iconic appearance. This specific specimen is identified by the "RED EYE JUNIOR" stamping found on the inner concave surface of the spoon. It carries a weight of 1/2 oz (13 g) and measures 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length, offering a solid profile for casting or trolling for pike and bass. The hardware is comprised of two original treble hooks attached via split rings at the nose and tail. Maintaining a condition rating of 5/5, the lure shows a clean, bright surface with no signs of use. This vintage Eppinger piece is designated by product code 14532.
