  • Patent number: 4970808
    Abstract: The introduction of electrical pulses and sonic waves into the water habitat of fish is accomplished by suspending electrodes of different electrode potential attached to the fishing lure. The electrodes are configured to flutter when drawn through the water and the fluttering causing the electrodes to make momentary contact. The electrodes of different potential and the water as electrolyte constitute a voltaic cell which discharges an electrical current pulse when the electrodes make contact. The impact of the colliding electrodes simultaneously generates an acoustical wave into the water, it has been long known that electrical pulses and sonic waves attract fish.
