The Mepps Aglia Marabou combines the vibration and flash of a classic
Mepps Aglia blade with the unmatched lifelike movement of a hand-tied marabou
tail. We use the finest and softest marabou feathers available for the maximum
amount of pulsating action in the water. Like all other dressed Aglias, the
Aglia Marabou also features a red turkey quill strike attractor – a Mepps
trademark. If you like the Aglia, try it with a top quality, brightly-colored marabou
tail. Nothing beats marabou for visibility and action in the water. Available in
six standard sizes, #0, #1, #2, #3, #4, #5 and twelve proven colors.
Lure size is important. The general rule of thumb is use smaller lures to catch
smaller fish and larger lures to catch larger fish.
Dressed Aglias (Ultra Lites and Wooly Worms) in size #00 or #0 are perfect for
panfish (bluegills or sunfish) and small stream trout. They are very light, however,
and require a nimble rod, equipped with a light action reel spooled with light line;
nothing heavier than six-pound-test. Two-pound-test to four-pound-test is better.
Dressed Aglias in size #1 and #2 are perfect for larger stream trout and large
bluegills, sunfish and crappies. Size #2 Aglias are also excellent for smallmouth
bass and walleye.
Mepps Aglias in sizes #3 and #4 are preferred by largemouth bass fishermen. In fact,
the #3 dressed Mepps Aglia was rated the best all around lure for largemouth bass by
the readers of Sports Afield magazine.
Size #4 and #5 Aglias are ideal for large rainbow trout and steelhead, as well as coho
(silver) and chinook (king) salmon. Northern pike and giant tackle busting musky will
inhale a dressed #5 Mepps spinner.
