Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Syclops 2, 3/5oz Silver fishing spoon #13883

Silver-plated surfaces on this 3/5oz (17g) spoon provide high visibility, characteristic of the Mepps Syclops 2 lineup. Measuring 3" (7.5cm) in length, the body features a deeply curved S-shape and an embossed scale pattern that catches light from multiple angles. The front face is decorated with bold red crescent-shaped scales and a matching red eye, with the "Mepps SYCLOPS 2" name clearly printed near the center. Turning the lure over reveals a clean reverse side stamped with the 17g weight and the "MADE IN FRANCE" origin, confirming its heritage. This specific specimen, cataloged under product code 13883, remains in a wonderful 5/5 condition, retaining its original metallic luster. The hardware is equally well-preserved, featuring a secure split ring at the head attached to a barrel swivel, and a sturdy treble hook at the tail for casting or trolling applications.
