Tipping the scales at 2/5 oz (12 g), the polished spoon face of this specialized casting lure features a crisp, deeply engraved "Mepps TIMBER DOODLE" hallmark. Measuring 2 1/4" (6 cm), this specimen from the USA highlights the brand’s innovative approach to weedless design, moving beyond their iconic spinners. The silver finish provides a high-flash profile, paired here with its original black soft plastic grub trailer impregnated with silver glitter flecks. This configuration is specifically engineered for navigating heavy underwater brush or timber, where the trailer body acts as a guard for the single hook. Identified by product code 5773, the lure is in exceptional 5/5 condition, showing a mirror-like sheen on the metal and a perfectly preserved soft plastic component. The attachment point at the head consists of a simple, robust eyelet designed for a direct line tie or a small snap, ensuring the lure remains stable during a steady retrieve through thick vegetation.
