Museum Archive: Eppinger Red Eye Wiggler, 1oz Nickel / Red Eyes fishing spoon #1999

Three inches (7.5cm) in length, this Eppinger Red Eye Wiggler provides a substantial profile for targeting trophy pike and large bass. This specimen, carrying Product Code 1999, features a bright Nickel / Red Eyes finish that is synonymous with the brand's long-standing reputation in the USA. Originally conceptualized by Hofschneider before the company was acquired by Eppinger, the design centers on the dual faceted red eyes that act as visual focal points. Weighing 1oz (28g), the heavy-gauge metal construction is paired with two distinct hooks to ensure solid hookups. The lure is unused and remains sealed in its original blister pack, preserving the factory sheen on the nickel-plated surface. Stamped on the rear label is the specific 'Nickel Back' designation, confirming the high-visibility metallic finish across the entire 3" (7.5cm) body.
