Description

FIG. 1 is an isometric view of a fishing attractant;

FIG. 2 is a front view of FIG. 1;

FIG. 3 is a back view of FIG. 1;

FIG. 4 is a first side view of FIG. 1;

FIG. 5 is a second side view of FIG. 1;

FIG. 6 is a first end view of FIG. 1;

FIG. 7 is a second end view of FIG. 1;

FIG. 8 is a back view of FIG. 1 shown fully installed onto a fishing line; and,

FIG. 9 is a back view of FIG. 1 shown fully installed on a fishing line and in use.

The broken line showing of a fishing line, fishing hook, and underwater environment are included for the purpose of showing environmental context, may not be to scale, and form no part of the claimed design.

While the front and back of the fishing attractant device are called out for relative figure viewpoints, it should be appreciated that the spherical shaped device has no literal front, back, or side. Additionally, the coils of the attractant may be compressible and expandable due to the use of flexible material and therefore the pitch or appearance of the relative distance between coils may appear closer or farther apart.

Claims
