Old lure ID?

Ok im wondering if anyone can id an old and prob cheap plug? We used it for bass in a pond when I was a kid, a good 35 or so years ago. It was a small plug with a u shaped cutout on front. The body color was white it had a ring of color around the nose and some dots on the body. They were orange and green but I don't recall which was where. It was a small diver say 1.5-2" long.
Anybody have any idea?
I think we wore all the.paint off it catching fish and I don't know what happened to it.

They got thrown away when the plastic worms melted the Styrofoam floats into a giant gummy mess that encapsulated half the lures in your tacklebox. Ah the good old days

Sounds like a lucky 13 in a smaller size. Used them a lot on farm ponds back in the day.
