Museum Archive: Eppinger Red Eye Wiggler UV, 1/4oz Fire Tiger / Brass fishing spoon #15139

A vibrant Fire Tiger pattern covers the 1/4oz (7g) brass body of this Eppinger classic. Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5cm) in length, the spoon is instantly recognizable by the two red glass beads inset into the head, which provide a unique flash and focal point. This specific Red Eye Wiggler UV model is designed with a reactive finish that glows intensely under ultraviolet light, as seen in specialized lighting, making the green and yellow hues pop in low-visibility environments. Labeled with product code 15139, the item is unused and remains attached to its original black and red Dardevle backing card. Made in the USA, the construction reflects the traditional quality of Eppinger’s Detroit production, featuring a polished brass reverse side and factory-original hardware including a sturdy treble hook.
