Mepps Syclops Spoon
Best versatile lure for multi species freshwater anglers.
This lure mimics the erratic, wounded movement of a baitfish so convincingly that it triggers aggressive strikes even when the water is cold or the fish are lethargic. It lacks the subtlety of a soft plastic, but its violent, side-to-side wobble is unmatched for drawing predators out of deep cover.
