Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Aglia 0, 3/32oz Black / White / Silver spinning lure #14127

Weighing a precise 3/32oz (2.5g), this ultra-light spinner is a classic piece of French-American angling heritage. The oval blade, measuring 1 3/4" (4.5cm) in total length, features the high-contrast Black / White / Silver striped pattern that remains a staple for clear water conditions. This particular specimen, designated by Product Code 14127, carries the iconic Mepps script and the size '0' stamp, denoting its status as a finesse tool for species like trout and panfish. Its construction involves solid brass body beads and a wire-wrapped frame that secures a sharp treble hook, which is accented by a bright red strike tube. Assembled in the USA using components manufactured in France, the lure represents the historical link between Andre Meulnart's design and Todd Sheldon's distribution. The condition is rated at a superb 5/5, with the blade graphics remaining remarkably sharp and the brass components retaining their original luster. The cone rotation system is engineered to engage as soon as the retrieve begins, maintaining a steady spin even at low speeds.
