Stamped clearly on the gold-toned blade with the iconic "AGLIA" and "MADE IN FRANCE" markings, this size 3 spinner represents a true classic in any veteran angler's collection. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) and weighing 1/4 oz (7.3 g), this specimen features the traditional brass finish known for its visibility across various water conditions. The body is built with several brass segments separated by bright red ribs, which lead down to a black squirrel or deer hair dressing on the treble hook. Identified by product code 5827, this lure shows its history through a clean 4/5 condition rating, maintaining a bright shine on the metal and full coverage in the tail feathers. As a piece assembled in the USA using French-made components, it utilizes a cone rotation system designed for the blade to turn as soon as the retrieve begins. A small red accent at the head of the dressing provides a focused strike point for following fish.
