Museum Archive: Vintage Luhr Jensen Westport Wobbler, 3/5oz White / Black fishing spoon #4467

White enamel covers the surface of this 4" (10cm) spoon, serving as a high-contrast backdrop for the bold black graphics that define the Luhr Jensen aesthetic. Weighed at 3/5oz (16g), this specific Westport Wobbler (Product Code: 4467) represents a classic era of Pacific Northwest trolling tackle. The design features a heavy-gauge metal body intended for deep-water presentations where visibility is key. Looking at the hardware, the original treble hook is secured by a sturdy split ring, typical of the robust USA manufacturing standards of the time. The paint on the front side showcases a distinct pattern of straight lines flanking a central row of circular notches, while the back remains a clean, solid white. Evaluated at a condition rating of 5/5, the finish is exceptionally well-preserved across the entire frame. Collectors often seek out these larger Luhr Jensen models for their historical connection to coastal salmon fisheries.
