Chris Mckee – Farm Pond, Overbrook, Kansas

Lure: Black Fury

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth

I could not believe how many bass I caught on this lure! All big largemouth bass 10 over 2 pounds and two over three pounds. I will keep this one in my arsenal.

William Anderson – Private Pond In My Back Yard, North Carolina

Lure: Little Wolf

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth

I headed down to my pond, (about 100'x100'), today and was going to use a spinnerbait but had fished one recently without success so I tied on a Little Wolf 2/5 oz Spoon. I figured it would be as visible as a spinnerbait in the dirty water following a hard rain and not be something the bass had seen before. Second cast I catch a 2 pounder. I should note here that these fish are extremely hard to catch because I fish it so often.
They will be very shallow on sunny days in the winter because that's where the warmest water is and if the water is dirty it's also where the visibility is best so they can feed.

Charles And Jeanine Keevert – Cheney Lake Kansas, Kansas

Lure: Black Fury

We bought our first Black Fury in 1960. After that we have bought lots of Mepps exclusive.

Went fishing while spending a week at a friends lake house. Got countless Northern Pike, with the biggest at 4.80 Lbs. And got a new personal best Largemouth Bass at 3.54 Lbs. The size 3 spinner is my favorite.

Nathan Howe – Oklahoma

Lure: Double Blade Aglia

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth

I bought this lure in the firetiger color from Dicks Sporting Goods. The very first cast and I caught a nice sized bass for the water I was fishing. I caught many more fish with this lure. This is a top notch, must have for the tackle box lure.

Kevin Hurley – Muskegon, Michigan

Lure: Little Wolf

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth - Bass, White - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Bowfin - Catfish, Channel - Crappie (White) - Perch, Yellow - Trout, Brown

I spent 160 dollars to get the free hoodie that was offered for orders 150 dollars. First, the hoodie and hat are excellent quality. Absolutely love them. I grew up with a father that taught me Mepps are the best. I moved to an area that wasn't great for fishing without a boat and got big into catfishing on the bottom with live bait. Well, I moved back to Michigan and realized I needed to get back into lure fishing. I thought 150 dollars might be a little extreme, so I decided to catalog the fish I caught to see if the money was worth it. Here's where I'm at a month in fishing exclusively with my Mepps order:
52 large mouth bass
7 small mouth bass
27 bluegill
12 perch
4 white bass
5 channel cats (all over 8lbs and largest at 18lbs)
2 brown trout
5 bowfin
4 crappie

All that and I've only used 5 of the lures I got so far. The only lure I used and didn't land a fish was a Thunderbug that a small musky broke off. The Little Wolf spoon has been fantastic for me. Never used spoons much but tried it out and caught fish on the first 3 casts. Don't sleep on the grab bags. Wouldn't have known how great the Little Wolf is if I didn't get it in the grab bag.

All my fishing friends keep trying to push me on other lures but I think the results prove what my father always said "Mepps is the best". Looking forward to losing enough of my new lures so I can justify another 150 dollar order.

Bert Thielman – Bleachers Pond Fall River, Massachusetts

Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Pickerel - Catfish, Bullhead (brown, yellow & black)

I have many Mepps lures. When the bite is tough, tie on a Mepps. I use them in cold water up here in the northeast and they don't disappoint. Mepps are great multi species lures, and you can slow roll them or burn them it doesn't matter, there will be a fish on the other end.

Luke Sears – Annapolis, Maryland

Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Rock - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Catfish, Blue - Catfish, Channel - Crappie (White) - Perch, White - Pickerel - Sunfish (shellcracker)

I've been using all sorts of lures cheap ones, expensive ones, all kinds, but no other lure has worked as good as a Mepps. They can literally catch any fish. Wherever I go I take one with me because if I see a fishing pond, I know I'm guaranteed to get one with the Mepps.

Ken Wagner – Turtle Flambeau Flowage, Wisconsin

These lure is hot

Paul Evon – Bad River, St. Charles Michigan, Michigan

Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Crappie (White) - Perch, Yellow - Pike, Northern - Catfish, Bullhead (brown, yellow & black)

I have had nothing but the best of luck with the Mepps plain Aglia spinners (# 1, 2, 3)
I like spinners because I have more control of their depth and they do not sink very far down.I have caught bullhead and panfish, all types of bass and the mighty Northern Pike. My guess is that spinners mimmick insects so that would attract just about any species of fish. I have the best luck with the red and white blades. I have over $200 of lures in my tackle box but I only use Mepps spinners 95% of the time. I am a Mepps fan for life.....

Steve Eckstein – Lake Erie Tribs, Ohio

Lure: Bronze Slammer

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth - Catfish, Channel - Pike, Northern

I have used Mepps products for years. All of them catch fish. But these bronze slammers... Wow. The size difference is very clear. Make more of these!

Best spinner I've ever used. I fish this thing all the time and can count on it to nail bass and pickerel all day long. Still get perch and crappie on em too.

Tim Fox – Yellowstone Nat’l Park And All Over MN & WI, Wisconsin

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Crappie (Black) - Crappie (White) - Perch, Yellow - Pike, Northern - Trout, Brook - Trout, Brown - Trout, Cutthroat - Trout, Rainbow - Walleye

This trio is extremely effective for a diverse range of fresh water fish. I’ve recently caught multi species of trout in Yellowstone NP with these in size 0 and 1. Black Fury also effective. Prefer single hook for a variety of reasons. A great Go To lure of mine for many decades…especially for shore, wader, canoe/kayak fishing rivers, streams, creeks, ponds, and small lakes. One lure I know I can always toss with confidence! (Use thin, lite, line…4-6’ish.)

The #4 Mepps Silver Bladed White Skirt is my absolute go to locator lure for Northern Snakeheads here on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.. 4 outta 4 top 5 finish's in Snakehead Tournaments with the Mepps Aglia!! Great product and they hold up well to the aggressive fighting fish!

Peter Liardi – Brockville,Ontario,Saint Lawrence River, Ontario , Canada

Lure: Aglia Tandem

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Perch, Yellow - Pike, Northern - Bass, Peacock

I've used this lure all of my life and it's the best lure of its kind! I've caught Northern Pike,Bass both large and small mouth. I highly recommend that you purchase of, if you want hits and catches! I'm 67 years old now and suffer from diabetic neuropathy which makes it hard for me to walk or even get a good grip on my pole, so like the song says " Don't get around much any more " I wish you all the luck in the world. Helps lures rule! Bye for now sincerely Peter C. Liardi. 😀 peace ✌&💘4Eva

Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Rock - Bass, Smallmouth - Bass, Striped - Bass, White - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Carp - Catfish, Blue - Crappie (White) - Perch, Yellow

I am a 45 year old woman I have been fishing since I was 3 years old. First started with my grandfather. He had always used nothing but Mepps spinners. So I followed in his foot steps. I try new lures on occasion but have found its a waste of time for me. I will only use Mepps to catch the fish!!! They are the best!!

Guaranteed you will catch fish with this lure, especially with the Silver & Gold plate lures.

Martin Samelson – Lily Pond, New Gloucester, Maine, Maine

Lure: Comet Combo

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth

Mepps has made me into a spinnerbait fan with the #3 Comet Combo. This morning at 8am I paddled my kayak along the western side of Lily Pond, made a cast using the chartreuse Mister Twister that came with the Comet. I thought the cast up was too close to the shore but I reeled it back slowly anyway, and "wham," a nice 1 lb. largemouth hooked up. Over the years I've thrown a Mepps occasionally but now I'm convinced.

Did I mention this is the second time the Mepps Comet with a Mister Twister / chartreuse has delivered?

What are you guys gonna due next?

Martin in Maine

Jordan Kay – Wisconsin, Illinois

Lure: Minos

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Catfish, Blue - Musky - Perch, Yellow - Pike, Northern - Walleye

The Perch Mino and Rainbow Blade combo is crazy. I have had multiple musky over 40" hit it. Make sure you are using the correct gear.

Brian Willms 414 Outdoors – Up North, Wisconsin

Lure: Musky Killer Bait Series

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth - Musky - Pike, Northern - Walleye

In my opinion the Mepps Musky Killer is the most versatile multispecies fishing lure you can pitch. It is a perfect size allowing you to catch a multitude of different species.

While casting the Mepps Musky Killer Bait Series in Walleye color I was able to catch a Musky 40”, Pike 34” Smallmouth Bass 21” & Walleye 24.5” all on the same lake, in the same day on the same bait within 4 hrs of getting on to the water @ sunrise.

Do yourself a favor and try some of the new Mepps Musky Killer Bait Series color schemes. You won’t regret it!

-Tight Lines,

Richard – Lake Erie, Rockwood, Michigan

Lure: Double Blade Aglia

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, Smallmouth - Bass, White - Catfish, Channel - Pike, Northern

I'm just honestly thankful these products exist. Just had one of my best days ever trying out new Double Bladed Mepps spoon/spinner, absolutely killed the largemouth. Caught some pike, small mouth and a totally unintentional channel catfish. Just turned my buddy onto these too, he wasn't having any bites and after I reeled 3 in he walked over and went through my bag for one and started landing them. Made for some awesome photos and an awesome day. Can't say enough good things about Mepps products without sounding like I'm getting paid to write this. When the fishing gets tough, I'll always carry a Mepps spoon/spinner and slap it on and can almost guarantee something. Mepps Aglia 5 treble hook single/double blades will get just about anythings attention and get you on some fish. Great lures.

Charles W Taylor – Virginia

Lure: Aglia Flashabou

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Carp - Crappie (Black) - Sunfish (shellcracker) - Trout, Rainbow

There is something about that extra flash that will out fish other baits. A number 1 slow rolled will slay trout. I have also caught my person best bluegill on a number 3 along with a 4.5lb bass on a number 1.

Kevin Osina – Bethany Lakes, Allen, Texas

Lure: Thunder Bug

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, White - Bluegill (Bream, Brim)

This lure works like magic. You throw it, they bite!!

Gabe Resto – Bell Creek, Wicomico River In Salisbury, Maryland

Lure: Aglia Ultra Lites

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim)

I tied on my ultra lite for the last couple casts to see if anything would bite a lure instead of nightcrawler, and two casts later my personal best bass waked out of the brush and slammed it. The perfect lure!

Luke Rice – Private Pond, Calhoun GA., Georgia

Lure: Aglia Flashabou

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim) - Trout, Rainbow

The Mepps Aglia Flashabou is a great lure. I used the chartreuse blade and chartreuse tail color (size 2) in a stocked pond and caught a cooler full of fish. I caught one nice bluegill, four or five small bass, and about a dozen rainbow trout. Two of the trout were about two pounds a piece! I lent my trusty silver Mepps Mino to the owner of the pond, but he only caught one trout and one bass with it (most of the time I love to use the Mepps Mino). Today I used the right color and was well rewarded. Thank you one again Mepps for making the World's #1 Lure.

Bill Danfield – Wisconsin River, Rhinelander, Wisconsin

Lure: Black Fury

Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Musky - Pike, Northern - Walleye

This is my "go to" bait under most conditions --- I've caught a few legal muskies using the # 5 BLACK FURY despite it's size and recommend it for kids to use on spinning tackle for lots of action -pretty much guaranteed !

They slam it and hook ups are pretty much 100%

I always have a couple in the boat and if fishing is slow I can be pretty sure I'll at least have action using the Mepps # 5 Black Fury.

My best experience was going out with my son and putting on a new Black Fury -and catching a legal musky -1st cast !!!
