Museum Archive: Vintage Eppinger Red Eye Wiggler, 1oz fishing spoon #22238

Two prominent red faceted glass beads are set into the body of this 1oz (25g) casting spoon, acting as light-reflecting strike points. Known as the Red Eye Wiggler and produced by Eppinger under product code 22238, the lure features a distinctive chartreuse and green finish on the front face. The reverse side is painted in a solid white and bears the clear 'RED EYE WIGGLER' stamp into the metal. At 3" (7.5cm) in length, this specimen is built for techniques requiring slow retrievals, which is helpful when targeting pike or perch in warmer waters. The hardware remains in excellent shape, earning a 5/5 condition rating with clean surfaces and sharp-looking treble hooks. Its American-made construction showcases the classic oval spoon shape designed to maintain its profile even at lower speeds.
