Can anyone Identify this lure?

It has the shape of a Baby 1 minus but this lure runs about 4-5 ft deep and the eyes are not quite the same

Isn’t it a Bandit 100??

It's possible.... this is an old lure of mine from the 80's the eyes may have changed a bit since then.
I plucked this out of mothballs for fun and started catching fish with it. Now I wish I had more.
Its so old the paint inside is a loose powder.

Did it used to be clear with a silver flash inside?

If so, Bomber used to make that color. I used some back in the 80’s-early 90’s, loved the color, but quit using them because they turned white inside like that.

It looks like a bandit in shape, but the bandit cranks don't have the indent for gluing eyes on since they paint the eyes on (it looks like in the photo that the sticker-type eye is out of place, just above and in front of where the eye should be).

There is no indent for the eyes if you look closer there are 3 more of what looks like indentions but they are on the inside. 2 near the tail and one on the belly.

To be honest I can't remember. But you may be right. This has turned to a white powder and has me wondering if has helped the productivity of the lure.

It might work. I caught a lot of fish on the clear/silver insert baits, set them aside when they turned white inside. Maybe I made a mistake, if I kept using them might’ve kept catching them.

My bad...thought the spot right below and behind the eye was an indentation for the placement of the eye.

Are those the old long shanked mustad triple grips? If so it’s body type looks like a bandit to me.

The white powder on the inside and transparent parts at the hook hangers scream Norman to me. No idea what model, currently digging to see if I can find one that matches now

Current best guess is that it's an original Baby N but I'm not sure that's a match. Definitely haven't seen any in that color. The Little N is close too but I think it's more elongated.

I replaced the hooks recently. Can't remember which brand.

I compared vintage Baby N. My lure seems to have a rounder belly, At least from my perspective.
