Abstract: A vibrating disc fishing lure for adding motion to live bait as it moves through the water. The vibrating disc fishing lure generally includes a leader with a fixed loop adapted for attachment to a fishing line, the leader also being attached to or including a fishhook. The lure also includes a disc on the leader positioned between the fixed loop and the fishhook, the disc having a flat front surface toward the fixed loop and a flat rear surface toward the fishhook, and having an opening that extends from the flat front surface to the flat rear surface, wherein the leader passes through the opening such that the disc is free to rotate and vibrate on the leader.
