Stamped directly onto the gold-finished blade, the 5/8 oz marking—corresponding to the 3/5oz (17g) catalog weight—highlights the heavy-duty nature of this salmon spinner. Assembled in the USA with components originally made in France, the Mepps Flying C measures 3 1/4" (8cm) in total length. The core of the lure is protected by a vibrant red rubber sleeve, providing a textured contrast to the polished metal. Cataloged under product code 3631, this piece utilizes a classic size 4 Aglia blade back-stamped with the French origin. The treble hook and wire frame remain intact, showing moderate signs of previous water time that place its condition at 3/5.
