Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Spoon 2, 1/3oz fishing spoon #8717

Measuring 2 1/4" (6cm) in length, this classic spoon features a vibrant red holographic finish that catches the light through its prismatic texture. Stamped clearly with "U.S.A." on the reverse silver face, the 1/3oz (9g) body represents the reliable manufacturing standards Mepps is known for. This particular Mepps Spoon 2, cataloged under product code 8717, displays the model name and size in crisp white lettering across the front. The hardware includes a sturdy treble hook equipped with a distinct red plastic attractor sleeve, designed to provide a focal point during the retrieve. In a condition rated 5/5, the metal surfaces are bright and the decal remains fully intact. It is a well-preserved example of American-made tackle intended for casting across various freshwater environments.
