Gleaming with a prismatic 'Rainbo' finish, the willow-leaf blade on this spinner is a hallmark of the Mepps Aglia Long series. This specimen, carrying product code 20280, measures 3 1/4" (8 cm) in length and weighs 2/5 oz (11.5 g). The blade is clearly stamped with 'AGLIA LONG MEPPS 3' on the face and 'MADE IN FRANCE' on the reverse, acknowledging the French-made components that were later assembled in the USA. A distinct bead stack featuring two yellow beads and one vibrant orange bead sits on the wire shaft, providing the necessary spacing for the blade to rotate around the brass clevis. Below the beads, the treble hook is fitted with a red plastic sleeve, a traditional visual trigger for predatory fish. Rated 5/5 for its condition, the holographic scale pattern on the blade remains exceptionally crisp and the metal components show no signs of age.
