Abstract: The present invention discloses a device and method for expeditious, efficient and uncomplicated artificial lure and live bait augmentation through filamentous strand or strands attachment in the form of a “tag” that allows for prepopulated or “in-field designed”, angler-specific and angler self-populated adherence of one or a plurality of attachments designed to enhance artificial lure or live bait characteristics in relation to visual recognition, sonic profile, reflectivity, color, hook or hooks display, laminar-turbulent footprints, and weight and buoyancy functioning features.

Abstract: A method of fishing using various sonic-visual stimulators providing sound-and-visual-interest-generating attachments, generating sound and visual patterns attractive to fish, for use with terminal tackle on a fishing line ahead of a fishing hook or lure, of providing various sonic-visual stimulators having different characteristics, and of providing quick changes of sonic-visual stimulators or combinations of sonic-visual stimulators, and changes of mounting positions relative to other terminal tackle, while fishing, to achieve the most advantageous sonic and visual stimulation under varied, changing, and unpredictable fishing conditions.
