Weighing in at 2/5 oz (12 g), this classic Mann’s Bait tail spinner serves as a foundational tool for anglers targeting schooling fish at various depths. This specimen, assigned product code 12135, remains unused in its original packaging, maintaining the high-quality finish expected from a vintage American-made lure. The 1 1/2" (4 cm) lead body is finished in Hammered Nickel / Nickel, providing a metallic flash that mimics small baitfish. A single treble hook is positioned beneath the body, while the tail-mounted blade is designed to rotate during a steady retrieve or as the lure sinks to the bottom. Developed in Eufaula, Alabama, the Little George is a heavy-sinking jig capable of reaching deep structure or being cast long distances to surface-feeding schools. The packaging includes the original branding on the deep blue header card.
