Measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm) in length, this #5 Mepps Aglia features a distinct Platinum Light Green blade that offers a metallic sheen useful for varied light conditions. This unused specimen is preserved in its original packaging, showing the classic French spinner design assembled in the USA under Product Code 2286. At a weight of 1/2 oz (14 g), the lure is built around a solid brass body and a stainless steel shaft, terminating in a sharp, undressed treble hook. The blade is stamped with the Mepps Aglia branding and the number 5, indicating its size class for heavier casting applications. Developed originally in France by Andre Meulnart, the Aglia's reputation is built on its mechanical precision, specifically the clevis and cone setup that allows the blade to rotate the moment it starts moving through the water.
