Museum Archive: Vintage Mepps USA Black Fury Combo Killer 2, 3/16oz Fluorescent Green / Black spinning lure #0146

Fluorescent yellow-green coloring on the blade, punctuated by six bold black dots, distinguishes this vintage Mepps USA Black Fury Combo Killer 2. Cataloged as Product Code 0146, the lure features a blade stamped with "MEPPS 2 COMET," identifying its specific size and blade profile. This specimen was assembled in the USA using high-quality components manufactured in France, including the wire form and the brass-toned weighted body with three red accent rings. With a total weight of 3/16 oz (5.5 g) and a length of 2 3/4" (7 cm), the lure is designed as a hybrid between a traditional spinner and a soft plastic trailer. A translucent green curly-tail grub is rigged on the single hook, providing a textural contrast to the metallic hardware. The lure is in 5/5 condition, showing a bright, well-preserved finish and a supple plastic tail.
