A fishing lure having a minnow-shaped foamed plastic body and a one-piece wire located in the central longitudinal vertical plane of the body. The wire has a nose loop at the forward end of the body, a body loop at the lower mid-section of the body, and a tail loop at the rear end of the body. Treble hooks are connected with rings to the body and tail loops. A generally flat lip projects forwardly and downwardly from the nose section of the body. The body is made with a mold assembly having two plates with a plurality of body cavities and loop grooves for supporting the wire along the longitudinal central plane of each cavity. The mold assembly has a plastic material inlet passage leading to the nose section of each cavity and a vent passage open to the tail sections of each cavity. A gun is used to pressure inject plastic materials into the inlet passage which reacts in the body cavity to form the foamed plastic body.
