The Mepps® Aglia® Flashabou combines the world’s #1 lure action with high-visibility shimmer to trigger aggressive strikes. Built on the legendary Aglia platform, this spinner features a hand-tied Flashabou skirt that pulses and glows, making it the ultimate tool for dark water or overcast conditions.
Top Performance Features
-
Maximum Light Reflection: The premium Flashabou tail features highly reflective fibers that catch light from every angle, providing a massive visual footprint that mimics a panicked baitfish.
-
Proven Blade Action: Equipped with the classic Mepps Aglia blade that starts spinning the instant it hits the water, emitting the low-frequency vibrations fish can’t resist.
-
Hand-Tied Quality: Every skirt is hand-tied with a contrast of solid and metallic colors to provide a lifelike "breathing" action during the retrieve.
-
Precision Weighted: Perfectly balanced for long-distance casting and deep-running retrieves, ensuring your lure stays in the strike zone longer.
-
Versatile Multi-Species Appeal: A powerhouse for Trout, Salmon, Bass, and Northern Pike in both moving river water and still lakes.
Why Choose Aglia Flashabou?
When standard lures go unnoticed, the Flashabou fibers add a layer of texture and "flare" that triggers neutral fish. It’s the perfect blend of the classic Mepps vibration and modern, high-intensity flash.
Pro-Tips for Choosing the Right Size:
- Match the Hatch: Choose a blade size that matches the size of the local baitfish (minnows, shad, or fry) the predators are currently eating.
- Water Clarity: In crystal-clear water, smaller sizes (#0–#2) are often less intimidating. In stained or muddy water, larger sizes (#3–#5) provide more vibration and flash to help fish locate the lure.
- Depth Control: Larger blades create more lift. If you want to fish deeper in heavy current, use a smaller blade or a heavier weighted body. If you want to "buzz" the surface, go with a larger blade and a faster retrieve.
