Stamped with the "2 USA" marking on the reverse of its textured silver blade, this lure highlights the precision of Mepps craftsmanship. The willow-leaf blade features a scale pattern and a bold red stripe where the "Mepps Lusox 2" name is clearly printed. On the wire shaft, a series of three brass beads leads to a single red bead, creating a traditional color sequence that complements the main blade. This specific specimen, identified by product code 15483, includes the characteristic lead weight at the front, finished in a creamy tan with a red eye accent. Weighing 3/5 oz (17 g) and measuring 3 1/4" (8 cm) in length, the lure is built around a heavy-duty wire and a large single hook. The overall state is a clean 5/5, with the silver and red elements remaining vivid and the metal surfaces showing excellent preservation.
