Weighing exactly 1/8 oz (3.6 g), this spinner is built around a precision-machined brass body that provides the necessary ballast for its 2 1/4" (5.5 cm) frame. The signature black blade is decorated with five vibrant orange-red dots, a color pattern specifically designed for low-light conditions or stained water. Stamped on the reverse of the blade are the "Made in France" and "Mepps 1 Comet" markings, signifying the origin of the components before final assembly in the USA. Identified as Product Code 20285, the lure features a gold-plated treble hook following a translucent red bead that acts as a visual trigger. The finish on both the blade and the brass remains in excellent shape, warranting a condition rating of 5/5. Every element, from the wire-through construction to the clevis attachment, remains tight and original.
