Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen TEE Spoon 5 UV, 2/5oz Nickel / Orange spinning lure #10011

At a versatile weight of 2/5 oz (12 g), this TEE Spoon 5 UV by Luhr Jensen stands out as a specialized tool for deep-water presentations. Measuring 4 3/4" (12 cm) in total length, the lure features a distinctive stacked-cone body in a vibrant pinkish-orange hue, paired with a broad, painted blade. While the technical color is listed as Nickel / Orange, the visual impact is dominated by the neon orange-red finish on the spoon. Under ultraviolet light, as seen in the secondary image, the surfaces exhibit a strong glow designed for visibility in darker depths. This specific specimen, identified by product code 10011, was manufactured in the USA before the line was discontinued in 2004. The hardware remains in excellent shape, featuring a sharp treble hook and a top-mounted swivel to handle line management. Its physical condition is 5/5, presenting very clean surfaces and intact plastic segments.
