Gray and steel hues provide a lifelike appearance to the soft plastic minnow body of this assembly, which carries product code 0018. Weighing in at 3/4 oz (23 g), the lure utilizes a combination of components manufactured in France and put together in the USA. The Mepps 5 Comet Mino features a large, oval-shaped spinner blade and a distinct red-ringed weight section that sits just ahead of the trailer. You will find the hardware includes a sturdy treble hook positioned at the tail, while a secondary belly hook offers additional security. Showing the honest marks of use consistent with a 3/5 condition rating, the lure remains a solid example of hybrid spinner design. The blade retains its classic metallic finish, paired with the textured scales molded into the minnow's sides.
