Museum Archive: Vintage Bandit 200, 1/3oz fishing lure #14786

A distinct mesh scale pattern covers the upper body of this crankbait, transitioning into a vibrant yellowish-green underbelly. Reaching depths of up to 10ft (3.0 m), this Bandit 200 specimen is cataloged under product code 14786. At 1/3oz (8.5g) in weight and 2" (5.0 cm) in length, its profile is defined by dark, irregular vertical bars and bold red eyes that provide a sharp contrast against the earthy tones. This US-made deep diver is a floating, noisy model designed for casting and trolling applications, frequently utilized when targeting walleye and pike. The clear plastic bill houses the front line tie, and the body is rigged with two clean, dark-finished treble hooks. In 5/5 condition, the finish remains entirely intact across the body with no visible wear.
