  • Patent number: 6112451
    Abstract: The invention, known as the "Ben Spin," is a novel design for a spinnerbait used in fishing. The new spinnerbait combines a visual and vibratory action that is attractive to many varieties of fresh and salt water fish. This invention provides dual line tie eyes, realistic baitfish fin features, dual barbed hooks with trailer hook mounts, snap back clips and arced blade modifications. The invention's unique features imitate a baitfish as it is pulled through the water. The flash of the novel blade's resulting air bubbles visually stimulates the attacking fish. The unique spinner blades produce an alluring and attractive sound to most predatory fish. Other fish attack the instant invention lure in response to perceived antagonistic vibration. The novel spinnerbait, known as a "Ben Spin," appeals to a fish's instincts and normal reactions to sight and sound stimuli and provides an increased advantage to the fisherman.
