Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Aglia Long 2, 1/4oz gold/orange spinning lure #20988

Stamped with 'MADE IN FRANCE' on the reverse of its willow-leaf blade, this spinner reflects the high-quality engineering collectors expect from the Aglia series. A weight of 1/4oz (7.4g) combined with a 2 3/4" (7cm) length makes it a robust choice for varied casting conditions. The gold-plated blade is accented by a bright orange paint field and black dots, surrounding the deeply stamped Aglia Long 2 logo. Deeply grooved brass body components are separated by a vivid red bead, leading down to a treble hook finished with a protective red plastic sleeve. In 5/5 condition, the metal surfaces are bright and the painted details remain sharp. These French-made components were assembled in the USA, representing a classic era of the manufacturer's history. The willow-leaf blade is specifically designed to stay deep in the water column during the retrieve, providing a different profile than the standard Aglia. Product Code: 20988.
