Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Syclops 2 UV, 3/5oz Fire Tiger fishing spoon #10538

Fire Tiger colors transition smoothly from a vibrant chartreuse green at the nose to a deep orange at the tail on this 3/5oz (17g) spoon. Measuring 3" (7.5cm), the metal body features a series of black rib-like accents and a characteristic red eye. This specific Mepps Syclops 2 UV, listed under product code 10538, is built for visibility; the UV-reactive finish provides a sharp glow in deeper water or overcast conditions. The treble hook is equipped with a red tube strike indicator, a classic French touch from the manufacturer. You will find the condition is a healthy 4/5, with the paint and markings remaining crisp and distinct across the surface. The branding is stamped neatly alongside the black crescent shapes on the spoon’s convex side.
