Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Spoon 3, 1/2oz Nickel / Green UV Glow in UV light, Fluorescent fishing spoon #5936

Weighing in at 1/2 oz (13 g), this Mepps Spoon 3 features a striking Nickel / Green UV finish that glows under UV light. The front face is coated in a vibrant, fluorescent green honeycomb pattern, accented with bold black lettering identifying the model and size 3. Measuring 2 3/4" (7 cm) in length, the lure’s polished nickel back is cleanly stamped with "USA," denoting its manufacturing origin. A distinctive red sleeve covers the shank of the treble hook, providing a classic visual trigger for strikes. This specimen, identified by product code 5936, remains in 5/5 condition, showcasing a bright, reflective surface on the plated metal and split ring hardware. The UV-reactive properties of the green scale pattern make it a specific interest for anglers focusing on low-light visibility techniques.
