Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Lusox 2, 3/5oz Bright Orange spinning lure #0367

Bright orange highlights define the weighted head and blade sticker of this vintage specimen, a classic configuration for targeting pike in deeper water. Sized as a #2, the lure weighs 17g (3/5 oz) and measures 8cm (3 1/4") from the head to the hook bend. The gold-toned blade features the distinct 'MEPPS LUSOX 2' marking, a hallmark of French-manufactured components that were assembled in the USA. A series of brass-toned beads and a single fluorescent orange bead are arranged along the wire shaft, leading to a substantial single hook. Cataloged under product code 0367, this piece shows minor surface wear consistent with a 4/5 condition rating. The lead jig head at the front is shaped for stability, featuring a simple painted eye that complements the overall high-visibility color scheme.
