Museum Archive: Mann's Bait Mann's Little George, 3/4oz spinning lure #21791

Weighing in at 3/4 oz (21 g), the lead-bodied construction of this tail-spinner provides the necessary density for reaching deep-water schools. The compact 1 1/2" (4 cm) profile is finished with a blue-green back over a creamy white belly, accented by a bold pink-ringed eye. A hammered silver willow blade is attached to the tail assembly with a swivel, a signature design element from the Eufaula, Alabama, factory. Although the backing card lists the color as 'Chrome,' the physical finish on this specimen is a classic multi-tone shad pattern. This particular item, carrying product code 21791, remains unused in its original retail blister pack, representing a condition rating of 6. The top-mounted line tie allows for a direct connection, making the lure versatile for various depths by varying the sink time after a long cast. It is rigged with a single belly treble hook and follows the traditional tail-spinner configuration that became a staple for anglers targeting schooling bass and panfish.
