A weight of 1/2oz (14g) provides this size 5 Mepps Aglia with the necessary mass for long-distance casting and staying deep in the strike zone. The wide silver blade is clearly stamped with the Mepps Aglia TW branding and its French heritage, a design choice that has remained a standard since Andre Meulnart’s original 1938 invention. Measuring 3 1/4" (8cm), this specimen, cataloged under product code 7521, features a rich dressing of black hair with natural tan highlights, all secured with a clean, vibrant orange thread wrap near the eye. The ribbed brass body provides a solid foundation for the rotation system, while the hardware remains in excellent, functional shape. In its condition 5/5 state, the lure shows bright metal surfaces and a full, well-kept tail dressing that hasn't seen use. This specific configuration is a staple for targeting larger species like northern pike or heavy-water trout, utilizing the classic Aglia blade shape that catches the water's resistance the moment the retrieve begins.
