Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Syclops 00, 1/16oz Trout / Nickel fishing spoon #1789

Measuring exactly 1 1/2" (4 cm) in length, the curved body profile of this spoon is designed for both casting and trolling applications. A delicate weight of 1/16 oz (2 g) makes the Mepps Syclops 00 a specialized choice for ultralight anglers targeting trout or panfish. The Trout / Nickel finish displays a vibrant pinkish-red spine that transitions into a shimmering blue midsection accented by silver glitter and a row of black dots. A prominent white and black eye near the front split ring adds a lifelike focal point to the lure's presentation. Flipping the spoon over shows a polished nickel back stamped with the manufacturer's name, model name, and USA origin. This specific specimen, identified by product code 1789, is in 5/5 condition, exhibiting clean paint and bright, reflective nickel hardware. The single hook is securely attached with a sturdy split ring, completing the streamlined profile of this American-made hardware.
