Museum Archive: Vintage Bandit 200 UV, Chartreuse fishing lure #8068

A vibrant Chartreuse pigment dominates this 2" (5 cm) specimen, which features a specialized UV coating that glows intensely under blacklight for added visibility in murky depths. Weighing 1/4 oz (7 g), the Bandit 200 UV (Product Code 8068) is designed to dive up to 10ft (3 m), making it a staple for mid-depth casting or trolling sessions. This specific lure shows signs of previous use with character-adding hook marks on the flanks, earning a condition rating of 3/5. Its internal rattle chamber provides an auditory presence, while the sturdy clear lip is built for consistent performance when targeting species like pike or zander. The classic black eye with a yellow ring is set against a subtle green-to-teal fade along the spine. Originating from the USA, the hardware includes two sharp treble hooks secured by split rings.
