Mepps Aglia #5 - Gold

The Mepps Aglia #5 in Gold is the largest and most powerful version of the world's most famous fishing lure. The Mepps Aglia has caught more trophy fish than any other lure in history, and the #5 Gold is the go-to choice for targeting large trout, bass, pike, and muskie in Colorado's rivers and reservoirs. The gold blade delivers maximum flash and vibration that triggers aggressive strikes from the biggest fish in the water.

The World's Most Famous Fishing Lure

The Mepps Aglia has been catching fish since 1938, and its fundamental design has remained unchanged because it simply works better than almost anything else. The Aglia's French-style spinner blade rotates at a wide angle from the shaft, creating intense vibration and flash that fish detect from long distances. This combination of visual and lateral-line stimulation triggers strikes from fish that have ignored every other presentation.

#5 Size for Trophy Fish

The #5 Aglia is the largest standard size in the Mepps lineup, designed for targeting trophy-class fish. The larger blade creates more vibration and displaces more water, attracting fish from greater distances and triggering the aggressive, territorial strikes that large predatory fish are known for. In Colorado, the #5 Gold is particularly effective for large brown trout in the fall, pike in reservoirs, and bass in warm-water fisheries.

Gold Blade for Maximum Flash

The gold blade provides warm, yellow-spectrum flash that's particularly effective in clear water and bright conditions. Gold blades have a long history of outperforming silver in clear mountain streams and lakes, where the warm flash more closely mimics the appearance of common forage species like golden shiners and yellow perch.
