Mepps Thunder Bug

Here's a fishing lure so revolutionary it enables spinner fishermen to "match the hatch." From its quivering, veined, realistic wing to its finely finished segmented body, the Mepps Thunder Bug looks like an insect, acts like an insect, and, to panfish and trout, is every bit as tasty as an insect.

The computer-age finish resists chipping and peeling. You choose between a dressed or plain, ultra-sharp, strong treble or single hook. Unmatched Mepps quality. Mepps Thunder Bugs... Bugs, so natural, we even gave them bug names.

Thunder Bugs, the lures, not the insects, are available in sizes #00 through #2, making them perfect for stream trout as well as all sizes of river trout. The #2 size Thunder Bug is also ideal for smallmouth bass and walleye.

Whether you choose to use plain or dressed Thunder Bugs is strictly a matter of personal preference. Lure size, however, is important. The general rule is to use smaller lures to catch smaller fish and larger lures to catch larger fish.
