Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Spirit Spoon, 3/4oz Nickel / Red fishing spoon #5795

A striking red plastic teaser tail highlights the 2 3/4" (7cm) frame of this Luhr Jensen Spirit Spoon, providing a distinct visual contrast against its high-polish Nickel body. Identified by product code 5795 and the specific label 1273-034-0013, this 3/4oz (21g) specimen remains in its original factory packaging, representing an unused example of American tackle manufacturing from the brand's Hood River, Oregon heritage. The spoon's tapered silhouette is paired with a single treble hook and a translucent red flipper designed to catch light and provide a secondary focal point. While the back label identifies the finish as "CHRM" (chrome), the official cataloging lists it as Nickel / Red, both of which describe the mirror-like surface intended for visibility during casting or trolling. This specimen is unused, with the metal surface and hardware retaining their original factory luster.
