Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Super-Duper 501, 3/32oz gold fishing spoon #23416

Weighing in at a delicate 3/32 oz (2.3 g), this gold Luhr Jensen Super-Duper 501 features the iconic "U" shaped bent metal design that has become a staple in trout boxes across North America. The stamped brand name is clearly legible on the brass body, which measures 1 1/4" (3 cm) in length and shows a distinct red-painted accent on the line-tie end. This specific specimen, identified by Product Code 23416, comes rigged with a single treble hook secured by a split ring, while the front end retains its wire snap. Developed for versatility, the geometry of the metal allows it to be used effectively for casting or trolling when targeting panfish, bass, and trout. The lure is in well-maintained condition, showing minimal signs of handling and earning a 4/5 rating.
