Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Aglia 3 Dressed , 1/4oz Fire tiger spinning lure #20295

Fire tiger patterns on the broad blade provide high-contrast visibility, particularly effective when targeting species like pike or larger trout. Weighing 1/4 oz (7.3 g) and measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm), this Mepps Aglia 3 Dressed spinner is a quintessential piece of angling history, identified by product code 20295. The construction utilizes high-quality French components assembled in the USA, featuring the classic brass body and a clevis-mounted blade. A hand-tied treble hook is dressed with natural white and red hair, which adds a distinct silhouette and trailing visual element to the hardware. On the face, you can see the iconic black crescent stamps and the Mepps branding against a vibrant chartreuse-to-orange gradient. The reverse side of the blade shows a clean, solid brass finish. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, appearing completely unused with crisp paint on the blade and a full, healthy dressing. The weighted brass torso with its deep grooves is a design signature that has remained essentially unchanged since Andre Meulnart first developed the Aglia in France back in 1938.
