Stamped clearly into the brass blade are the marks "BRITISH PATENT" and "BREVETE FRANCE," highlighting the European heritage of this Mepps Aglia 2 (Product Code 1128). Measuring 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) in length and weighing 3/16 oz (4.5 g), this size 2 spinner utilizes the classic cone rotation system designed to facilitate immediate blade movement upon retrieve. The brass components retain a bright appearance, contributing to its 4/5 condition rating. Though the core components were manufactured in France, this specific unit was assembled in the USA, reflecting the brand's growth following its 1938 invention by Andre Meulnart. The bare treble hook remains sharp, secured to the segmented brass body by a sturdy wire frame that terminates in a clean top loop for line attachment.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
