    How do you identify lures like these? The are basically the same type of lure - but there are differences- the eyes, the way the hooks attach and the color scheme

    Largest has tack eyes and hooks on the bottom sit in a metal cup in the wood
    The middle one has a different color scheme design plus the eyes appear to be just a circle routed into the wood and painted
    The smallest one the hooks just screw into the wood and the eyes are just painted

    So similar but different which leads me to believe they are from different manufacturers - so any help letting me know who made these and what is the key detail that tells me that would be appreciated

    Thanks

      I think you have a few different lures judging by the color, color separation(angle vs straight), etc. I am mot a lures expert, but possibly Heddon and SouthBend?
