Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Syclops 1, 2/5oz gold fishing spoon #20324

Dressed in a brilliant gold finish, the textured surface of this 2 1/4" (6 cm) spoon features a detailed scale pattern that catches light across its distinct S-shaped profile. Mepps incorporated vibrant pink crescent accents along the body, flanking the classic black "Mepps syclops 1" stamp, which helps distinguish this specific size in the legendary Syclops lineup. Weighing in at 2/5 oz (12 g), the lure is equipped with a sharp treble hook featuring a bright red plastic tube on the shank, a design choice intended to provide a clear visual strike point. A single red eye decal near the front eyelet adds a touch of realism to the head area. This specimen, identified by product code 20324, presents in excellent condition with a 5/5 rating, showing no visible wear on the plating or factory hardware. The split ring at the rear remains tight and secure, ready for casting or trolling applications.
