The lure may include one or more spinner blades or propeller blades to drive rotation of the main housing. The main housing and/or tumbler(s) may be any of a variety of shapes, sizes, and lengths to create sounds in a wide range of frequencies for catching different kinds of fish, and materials from which the main housing and tumbler(s) are made may further impact frequency, pitch, and range of sound emitted.
