| I finally got one of the new H210's in my hands this morning. I think this is truly going to be a great spinner.
The biggest differences I see with the H210 compared to other double 10's is first, the jointed body (just like a mepps musky marabou) which is a great feature because it is a pain trying to straighten the single strand on other bucktails after a fish or two. Second, the H210 is much shorter than other double 10's. Measures in at 8" which should be easier to cast with the more compact design.
Overall, I really like the look of it!
I just got a orange/black one today from a friend of a friend that works over there. As far as I know they are not out for sale yet. The one I got came in plastic but no cardboard back... I imagine they have them though and should be out in the stores very soon.
FYI I do not work for or have any association with this product, however, live in Antigo and know its going to be another great product from Mepps.
I can't wait to get out tonight and toss it around.

| Well it's about time that Mepps came out with a double bladed bucktail, their only about 5 years late to the dance! The part about the joint that you like is the reason I dislike Mepps so much, they get tangled around the line more than any other bucktail I've ever used because of that "feature". But I still like the Mepps Marabous! |

| I know it's about time. Mepp's has been missing out on the big blade craze.
As far as the jointed strand getting tangled - I haven't noticed it to be all that bad. Very low percentage of casts. I would say less than 5%. Dawgballs are wayyy more frequent.
The H210 looks like a fine bucktail though. I'll let you know how it spins after tonight.
