Measuring 3 1/4 inches (8 cm) in length, this size 5 spinner carries the substantial 1/2 oz (14 g) weight that makes it a favorite for targeting larger species like pike or salmon. Identified by product code 15556, the blade is adorned with a striking tri-color pattern of blue and neon pink over a silver base, finished with bold black spots for visibility. On the reverse, the 'Made in France' stamping confirms its heritage, noting that while components originated in Europe, the final lure was assembled in the USA. The specimen is in 4/5 condition, showing a bright, clean finish on the graduated silver beads that form its weighted body. A signature bright orange sleeve covers the shank of the treble hook, serving as a high-visibility strike point. The heavy blade is designed to rotate around the central axis using a precision-machined brass clevis, ensuring immediate engagement as soon as the retrieve begins.
