Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Syclops 2, 3/5oz Gold fishing spoon #17512

Stamped with the "MADE IN FRANCE" mark, this Mepps Syclops 2, product code 17512, weighs in at a solid 3/5 oz (17 g). The gold finish features a distinct scale pattern etched into the convex side, catching light along the curved metal surface. Measuring 3" (7.5 cm), the spoon’s dense construction is suited for reaching depth when casting or trolling. This specimen is in 5/5 condition, maintaining its clear stampings including the model number "S" and weight markings on the concave rear. It comes rigged with a sharp treble hook featuring a high-visibility orange strike tube. The lure connects to the line via a pre-drilled hole at the narrow end, while the hook is attached using a durable split ring.
