Museum Archive: Vintage Bandit 300, 1/3oz River Bream fishing lure #16907

Finished in a detailed River Bream pattern, this deep-diving crankbait features a striking blue head transitioning into a metallic, scale-textured body. Weighing 1/3 oz (8.5 g) with a compact length of 2" (5 cm), the specimen is built for precision depths, specifically reaching between 8-12 ft (2.4-3.6 m) when cast or trolled. This Bandit 300, identified by product code 16907, carries the brand's legacy of American-designed effectiveness for targeting species like pike and walleye. The clear, elongated diving lip is integrated seamlessly into the frame, housing a secure tie point for stable tracking. Its hardware consists of two sharp treble hooks that remain in excellent form, reflecting a condition rating of 5/5. Dark gill accents and a distinct spot near the lateral line complete the visual profile of this well-maintained lure.
