  • Patent number: 4253263
    Abstract: A surgical eel fishing lure includes a flexible rubbery polymer tube member having an outer surface of one color and an inner surface of another color. A fish hook extends from one end, and a swivel is located at the other end thereof. A stainless steel forming wire joins the hook and swivel, and the tube is bent back on itself enclosing the swivel therein and presenting a rounded "head" on the "eel" for providing uniform water flow over the head and reduced resistance.
