MIRROLURE 60M ??
hey guys. a friend of mine, who gave up fishing for medical reasons, donated his tackle box to yours truely. there was a bunch of older lures like Bingos and large Mepps spinners that i don't plan on using, but i also found a Mirrolure 60M21. I know the 21 is mullet pattern and it has three large trebles and lacks rattles. it looks like a 52m. anyone have an idea of what the difference is? maybe it sinks faster? i have the new Mirrolure catalog, and its not in there. i thought it was the big game series at first, but thats the 65M and 77M. any help is appreciated.--- sharpshooter

no, you're speaking of the 51 series. ive got a few of those too. i think this one is the predecessor to the 52. i found an article where the founder of Mirrolure used a 60m to catch a tarpon and fought it for 17 hours straight! just doesnt say anything about the lure. thanks.

The 60M is a heavier(5/8 oz) deep runner. http://www.fourway.net/users/pkiefer/mi ... odels.html
