Museum Archive: Luhr Jensen Super-Duper 500, 3/64oz Gold / Red fishing spoon #3932

Measuring exactly 1" (2.5cm) in length, this metal lure is a prime example of the functional design originating from Hood River, Oregon. The Gold / Red finish features a polished gold-plated body with a distinct red highlight at the tail. This Super-Duper 500, cataloged under product code 3932, weighs 3/64oz (1.4g) and remains unused in its original vintage packaging. On the reverse of the card, Luhr Jensen & Sons, Inc. provides technical guidance for both casting and trolling applications, suggesting a slow to medium retrieve. When trolling, the manufacturer recommends using an 18" (45.7 cm) leader and notes its effectiveness when positioned 30-50 feet (9.1-15.2 m) behind the boat. The lure is equipped with a factory-attached snap and a treble hook, preserved in its original display card from the Luhr Jensen & Sons era.
