  • Patent number: 5461819
    Abstract: A lure with outstanding reverse gliding features and unprecedented glide path control features is disclosed. The lure comprises a lure body, a wing, an arm portion which extends upwardly from the wing and a buoyant member which is connected to the upper end of the arm. The arm can be adjusted to control the position of the buoyant member which, in turn, controls the direction of glide, the rate of descent during a glide and the rate of ascent during retrieval. The arm can be adjusted to position the buoyant member in a neutral position where the lure, during gliding, will have a generally straight glide path. The arm can also be adjusted to position the buoyant member in a non-neutral position so that the lure glide path will be generally arcuate.
