I found a plug that looks exactly like that last year.  It was hooked on a branch that I snagged with a jig & pulled up to the boat.  I have never used it, but now it has my curiosity up.

 

Try fishing it. Mine runs about 3-4 feet deep, has a good "wiggle", and has some flash from the metal lip - seems to work...

 

Others have mentioned the old Heddon River Runts, I had forgotten about that lure.  Another one I used to like, lost somehow and then forgot it existed.  Maybe someone found my old River Runt in the same manner I found the MirrOlure...

 

My surviving Runts - had them both since sometime before 1967. I guess one of these days I should try to catch a fish on one of these too...
