  • Patent number: 5131181
    Abstract: An improved artificial fishing lure simulating in motion and appearance an injured frog bait. The invention in body shape, coloring, and single-leg vibration is designed to glide above the surface of the water imitating the motions of an injured frog. The lure is constructed of a resilient flexible material such as a durable elastic polyurethane plastic. A hook shank is inserted into a hollow internal cavity and the hook and barbs are positioned to interact with a depression formed in the top rear of the upper body. The positive buoyancy and design of the lure continuously maintains the lure in an upright configuration with respect to the water surface. The body design of the lure promotes an extremely efficient weedless character of the artificial frog bait simulating the natural bait in all desired respects.
