Museum Archive: Marathon Musky, 2oz Nickel spinning lure #2076

Nickel plating catches the light across the large, teardrop-shaped blade of this heavy-duty spinner. Weighing in at 2 oz (58g), the Marathon Musky is built for serious casting or trolling when targeting large predators. The 7" (18cm) total length features a substantial hair-dressed tail in a soft pink and grey color scheme, providing a large profile in the water. Rated at a 6, the lure is unused and remains in its original, though weathered, blister pack from Marathon Tackle. The packaging proudly displays the company's roots in Mosinee, Wisconsin, a region famous for its musky fishing heritage. A red-and-white painted lead head is positioned at the front of the assembly, serving as a high-contrast focal point. Cataloged under product code 2076, the lure features a sturdy wire frame and robust components designed to withstand the pressure of a heavy strike.
