Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Comet Mino 0, 1/8oz Gold spinning lure #13705

Stamped clearly on the gold blade, the 'Made in France' mark highlights the origins of the high-quality components used in this Mepps Comet Mino 0 (Product Code: 13705), which was ultimately assembled in the USA. Weighing in at 1/8oz (3.5g), the lure features the classic Comet blade design paired with a weighted gold body accented by three recessed red rings. The 2 3/4" (7cm) profile is completed by a soft, minnow-style trailer with a dark dorsal coloration transitioning into a golden belly, finished with a bright yellow eye for visual contrast. This specific example maintains its original luster and flexibility, earning a 5/5 condition rating. A simple snap-link connector allows for the easy replacement of the soft plastic component, a design feature that has kept this hybrid spinner relevant for decades.
