Gold-plated blades remain a staple for many trout and bass enthusiasts, and this size 3 Mepps Aglia from the 1980s showcases that timeless finish beautifully. Stamped onto the metal is the "French Pat." mark, a nod to the lure's heritage, while the overall weight sits at 1/4oz (7g). This specimen, identified by product code 18839, is unused and presents in a condition rating of 6, still housed in its original blister pack. A vibrant red sleeve covers the treble hook shank, a small but significant detail often lost once these lures are fished. The back of the mounting card even includes the original mail-in offer for the "Mepps Fisherman's Guide" addressed to Sheldons' Inc. in Antigo, Wisconsin. Every component, from the brass clevis to the stacked body weights, remains bright and ready for a collection display.
This specific lure has found its new home. However, we have selected some excellent alternatives for you below.
