Museum Archive: Vintage Mann's Bait Little George Tail Spinner​, 3/4oz nickel spinning lure #21857

Weighing in at a substantial 3/4 oz (21g), this lead-bodied sinking lure offers impressive casting distance for its compact 1 1/2" (4cm) profile. This Mann's Bait Company classic, known as the Little George Tail Spinner, features a hammered nickel blade attached to the rear by a swivel to catch light in deeper water. The nickel-colored body on this specific specimen, identified by product code 21857, displays the iconic oversized pink-and-black eye graphic along with a secondary black spot further back. Made in the USA, the solid lead construction is a testament to the design's longevity for vertical jigging and deep-water presentations. The finish shows some honest surface marks from previous use, earning a respectful 4/5 condition rating. A single treble hook is mounted on the belly to ensure secure hooksets.
