  • Patent number: 6591543
    Abstract: A propeller 33 is disposed on a bearing collar 42 to rotate about a shaft 10 of a lure 32. The propeller has a plurality of blades 36, each having a proximal portion 37 with a first degree of pitch and a distal portion 38 having a second degree of pitch which is different than said first degree of pitch. The blades may have distal ends which have the same direction of pitch as the proximal ends, or distal ends which have pitch opposite to that of the proximal ends. The blades may have straight bends or curved bends between the proximal and distal portions, and each blade may comprise a single, smoothly curvilinear surface. The blades may have one or more holes of various sizes in one or more blades of each propeller, either in the distal portion or the proximal portion of the blades. One or more propellers may be mounted on buzz baits, top water lures including plugs, and on other lures.
