I found this lure on ebay, but all it said was japanese real minnow. Anybody know which company makes this bait? It is aprox. 5" long and weighs 3/4oz.

looks very strange never seen anything like it before. :-?

Super cheap that looks.

It looks like a cheap kids type toy with hooks.  Wouldn't bother.

Pretty realistic looking toy if you compare it to this:   http://cgi.ebay.com/BAT-COUNT-FISHULA-BAIT-CASTING-LURE-PIKE-BASS_W0QQitemZ130177128852QQihZ003QQcategoryZ31693QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I believe that one is made by the Nippon Clacker Jack Bait Co.

It does look like it was purpose designed and built to be a bait.  The place where the screw eyes go in seem to be reinforced with extra plastic.

But will it run true and catch fish?  Hmmm.  

Yo Jake,

Kinda looks like he waits for the Halloween store to run a clearance on plastic bugs then he puts a spinner and a wal mart treble on it.

Looks like it was a toy scorpion with the stinger cut off and he calls it a "crawfish"

Theres a BR challenge...actually catch a fish on this thing.
