A classic 'MEPPS 2 COMET' stamp is clearly visible on the silver blade of this 3/16oz (5.5g) lure, accompanied by the traditional 'MADE IN FRANCE' origin mark. Measuring 2 3/4" (7cm) in total length, this Mepps Combo Killer 2, identified by product code 3714, represents a versatile assembly of French-made components finished in the USA. The brass body is accented with deep red painted grooves, providing a stark contrast to the silver hardware. For extra visibility in various light conditions, the lure is equipped with a translucent orange-red UV silicone curly tail that reacts to ultraviolet light. The single-hook setup remains sharp and well-seated within the soft plastic trailer. Showing no signs of age or storage, this specimen maintains a condition rating of 5/5. The silver finish on the blade is bright, reflecting light cleanly without any loss of plating.
