Musky Marabou

Mepps® Marabou
Musky Marabou
Over the years the theory of big lures
catching big fish has been proven time again.
Summer and fall trophy musky fishing calls for
larger lures and faster retrieves. Big fish are
looking for big prey. The Musky Marabou was
designed specifically to catch big fish during
this highly active feeding period.
Thousands of musky and trophy northern
pike fishermen around the world call Mepps
Musky Killers, Giant Killers and Magnum Musky
Killers their confidence trophy lures. The Mepps
Marabou and Musky Marabou compliment this
great line-up of Mepps musky lures.
Both the big Musky Marabou and the downsized Mepps Marabou can, under the right
circumstances, be perfect trophy spinners for
anglers who chase the biggest predator in the
lake.
The quality of the marabou feathers used
in every one of these lures is one of the primary reasons they attract trophy fish. Every
Marabou spinner Mepps manufactures features the highest quality hand-dyed and handtied feathers for maximum durability... fish
after fish.
Musky Marabous also feature the classic,
time-tested Mepps tandem hook assembly
featuring extra-strong, extremely sharp hooks.
Mepps Marabous all feature a premium super
sharp 5/0 bronze treble hook. Like all Mepps,
both the Musky Marabou and Mepps Marabou
are designed, manufactured and assembled to
the highest standards, with the finest components.
Musky Marabou...
One of the biggest problems facing musky
and northern pike fishermen is weeds. The
best summer and fall fishing coincides with
periods of maximum weed growth. Now, however, thanks to the exclusive Mepps highspeed, free-spinning clevis and the Musky
Marabou’s extra-strong high-lift blade, trophy
fishermen have a spinner that can be run at
medium to very high speeds. This makes the
Musky Marabou perfect for running over the
top of either shallow or deep-water weeds. It is
also perfect for many other kinds of structure
including fallen logs or timber.
The Musky Marabou’s high-lift, hand-tied
tandem marabou tail has so much action in
the water it almost looks alive. This unbelievable lifelike action is produced by the wave
and flow of the soft, high-quality, durable
marabou feathers.
The extreme vibration and high flash of
the Mepps Colorado blade, coupled with the
natural swimming/undulating movement of
the marabou tail makes the new Mepps Musky
Marabou one of the most irresistible trophy
musky lures you will find anywhere.
Two years of on-the-water field testing
under the most demanding conditions produced unbelievable results and re-emphasized
the demanding quality built into this lure.
To begin with, the Mepps Marabou’s
Colorado blade brings the spinner closer to the
surface during the retrieve. This design is ideal
for fishing over weeds or those times when the
lure should just break the surface as its blade
spins.
The marabou tail provides additional benefits. Marabou in the water has distinctly different characteristics than bucktail. Vibrant colors
are easier to achieve when dying marabou.
The real difference, however, is in the action
and pulsation of marabou. That unruly, fluffy
puff of feathers becomes “magic” under water.
It is so fine and soft that each revolution of the
blade makes the marabou come alive.
Both the Mepps Marabou and Musky
Marabou are perfect for fishing over wood,
near structure, or burned/bulged right under
the water’s surface to trigger an instinctive
response from aggressive trophy fish.
Mepps® Master Angler Awards
Mepps Field Staffer, Bill Sandy, is a well-known
musky guide and owner of Sandy’s Blackhawk
Island Camp, Lake of The Woods, Ontario,
Canada. While field testing the Musky Marabou,
he and his clients caught 19 muskies over 50”.
It’s not only fun fishing the Mepps Musky
Marabou, it’s also very easy to fish. Use a
medium to fast retrieve over the top of weeds
where heavier, lower-lift spinners just can’t be
retrieved this way without getting fouled. This
is trophy fish water where, up to now, these
huge predators were safe from the trophy
musky hunter.
Mepps Marabou...
The Mepps Marabou was designed to easily fish water missed by many musky fishermen. The medium-running Mepps Musky Killer
is “old reliable” to musky anglers, while the
heavier Mepps Giant Killer, with it’s willow leaf
blade, runs deep and casts easily. The Mepps
Marabou, however, was designed with other
functions in mind.
