Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps Thunder Bug 0 White Miller, 3/32oz White Miller​ spinning lure #20398

Segmented white body sections give this 3/32 oz (2.6 g) spinner a distinct larval appearance that distinguishes the Thunder Bug line from standard blade lures. The White Miller color scheme is characterized by an intricately detailed wing-shaped blade, printed with black veins to replicate the look of a hatched insect. Bearing the Product Code 20398, this size 0 specimen measures 2" (5 cm) and reflects the manufacturing standards of Mepps' USA production. The underside of the blade reveals a polished gold-tone finish with the model name and branding clearly stamped into the metal. A treble hook dressed in soft white feathers completes the tail, adding a lifelike texture to the overall profile. This example is in 5/5 condition, showing clean painted surfaces and a straight wire frame. A small brass bead acts as a bearing between the blade clevis and the body segments to maintain proper spacing of the hardware.
