Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Aglia Long 2, 1/4oz Silver spinning lure #4835

Stamped clearly with the Mepps logo and size "2", the silver willow-leaf blade is the standout feature of this specimen. A total weight of 1/4oz (7.4g) combined with a length of 2 3/4" (7cm) characterizes this Aglia Long as a precision tool for mid-depth casting. The body construction utilizes stacked brass segments with red-painted recesses, sitting just above a translucent orange plastic bead. On the business end, the sharp bronze treble hook is encased in a bright red sleeve. Rated at a condition of 5/5, the lure retains its original factory luster without signs of age or wear. Components for this model were manufactured in France and assembled in the USA, ensuring the reliability associated with product code 4835.
