A hefty 1oz (30g) weight anchors this inline spinner, marking it as a serious tool for anglers targeting large pike or musky. Designated by product code 1087, the Mepps Giant Killer spans a total of 4 3/4" (12cm) and features a prominent willow-leaf blade with a nickel finish. Four stacked yellow beads provide a bright focal point on the wire shaft, leading down to a generously dressed tail. The dressing consists of thick black bucktail accented with strands of vibrant red feathers, which conceal a heavy-duty treble hook. Holding a 4/5 condition rating, the blade shows some light surface marks from previous use, while the wire frame and component alignment remain sturdy. This casting lure represents the heavy-duty construction characteristic of Mepps tackle designed for large predator presentations.
