he Dardevle “Imp” sits in the sweet spot of the Eppinger lineup, offering a substantial profile without the heavy bulk of the full-sized 1oz original. Measuring 2 1/4″ x 7/8″, this 2/5oz spoon is heavy enough to cast a mile on medium-action gear but light enough to be worked slowly over shallow flats. In the iconic Red/White finish, it provides the ultimate high-contrast visibility that has been a staple in tackle boxes for over a century. Its signature “S” curve produces a frantic, side-to-side wobble and an occasional fluttering “kick” that mimics a wounded baitfish, making it a universal trigger for nearly every freshwater predator.
Key Features
- Precision “Imp” Sizing: At 2 1/4 inches, it bridges the gap between finesse spoons and heavy trolling lures, making it perfect for bass, walleye, and northern pike.
- Classic Red/White Stripe: The most proven color pattern in history, providing maximum visual contrast that excels in both clear and stained water.
- Unique Built-In Wobble: Stamped with a thicker-to-thinner metal taper that ensures the bait swings and rights itself perfectly at multiple retrieve speeds.
- Exceptional Casting Weight: The 2/5oz density allows for long-range accuracy and deep penetration against stiff winds.
- High-Gloss Protective Finish: Sealed with a durable lacquer to prevent corrosion and maintain the vibrant color through seasons of use in the elements.
