Finished in a classic green crackle pattern with yellow and black "frog" spots, this specimen showcases the iconic aesthetic of the Eppinger brand. This 3/4 oz (21 g) spoon measures 2 3/4" (7 cm) and represents a versatile size for targeting pike or bass in heavy cover. The front face is punctuated by a central yellow circle containing the famous Dardevle devil head logo, held in place by two sturdy silver rivets. Turning the lure over reveals a clean, polished silver-tone belly stamped with the Dearborn, Michigan, location—marking its history following the company's move from Detroit in 1959. As a weedless variant (Product Code 5434), it features a single hook protected by a metal wire guard and dressed with a tuft of vibrant red feathers. This specific lure is unused and remains in exceptional condition. The crisp "MADE IN USA" stamping on the back serves as a testament to Lou Eppinger's legacy of domestic manufacturing that began in his basement back in 1906.
