Tipping the scales at 1/3 oz (9 g), this tandem-blade spinner offers a distinct profile for a size 3 lure. The dual-blade configuration of the Mepps Double Blade Aglia 3 Dressed features one red-painted blade and one gold-finished blade, providing a high-contrast visual. Stamped clearly on the underside of the gold blade is the "MADE IN FRANCE" origin of the components, while the final assembly was handled in the USA. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm) in length, the lure is finished with a natural squirrel and deer hair dressing on the treble hook, accented by a single red turkey-quill feather. This specific specimen, identified by product code 10403, presents in 5/5 condition with vibrant colors and clean hardware. The brass body is built with a stack of weighted rings, a core design element of the Aglia line that dates back to its 1938 French origins. A specialized clevis allows the blades to rotate around the central axis even at slower retrieve speeds.
