Abstract: The oscillating fishing lure is a fishing lure comprising: a body with a longitudinal axis, an uppermost surface, at least one hook, said first hook including a shank and a hook end, said shank being coupled to said body; a blade having an edge proximal to said body, wherein, during retrieval, a majority of said blade is oriented below said uppermost surface of said body; a joining mechanism whereby said blade is moveably coupled to said body, wherein said blade has freedom to move with respect to the roll, pitch and yaw axis only within strict mathematical limits; a line attachment mechanism, through which a fishing line is attached to the lure; and whereby retrieval of the lure causes the blade to oscillate in at least one dimension, and thereby causing the lure to erratically hunt. The oscillating-blade action imparts a natural swimming motion to the lure, emulating prey-species movements.

Abstract: The fishing lure includes a jig body, a blade, and a pin structure. The jig body includes a longitudinal axis, a connector, and at least one hook including a shank and a hook end, the shank being surrounded by and protruding rearwardly from the jig body. The blade has an edge proximal to the jig body, wherein the blade includes first and second members on the edge proximal to the jig body, each member defining a chamber. The pin structure is coupled to the blade via the first and second members, the pin structure including a midsection between opposing first and second pin ends, wherein the midsection of the pin structure engages the connector of the jig body while the pin structure passes through the first and second members of the blade. Retrieval of the fishing lure causes the blade to oscillate.
