Patent number: 10993423Abstract: The presently disclosed subject matter is generally directed to a fishing lure for use in attracting and catching fish. Particularly, the lure includes a lure head defined by a main body, a neck, and a connector. The main body includes a rounded first end that allows the lure to easily move through the water. The main body also includes a second end that is operably connected to the neck. The neck houses a plurality of rings that circumferentially surround the neck. In use, the rings make noise as the lure moves through the water. A skirt attaches to the connector and provides an additional attraction for fish. The lure is therefore designed to attract fish by sight and sound senses.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2020Date of Patent: May 4, 2021Inventor: Russell Weaver

Publication number: 20110072706Abstract: The present invention relates to an insect-shaped fake bait structure and a shaping method thereof. The insect-shaped fake bait structure includes a wing made of a metallic plate. The wing is formed with a plurality of guiding holes, a plurality of line holes, a fishhook hole, and a plurality of through holes. A portion of the wing about near the plurality of through holes is formed by die casting with a metallic material through an insect-shaped mold to form an insect-shaped body. The wing is integrated with the insect-shaped body by filling a material in the plurality of through holes. When the present invention is in use, the wing will swing by the turbulent flow through the plurality of guiding holes for attracting fish to attack the insect-shaped fake bait so that a fishhook is adapted to hook fish.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 19, 2009Publication date: March 31, 2011Inventor: Tsung-Hsi Tsai

Patent number: 6219955Abstract: An artificial fly/lure includes a body mounted about the shank of a hook. The body is formed of an open mesh weave material secured to the hook. A plurality of open mesh woven material appendages are secured to the body. The appendages project outwardly from the body to a freely movable outer end. A flexible rod is interposed within each appendage. The appendages in several aspects form wings to enable the artificial fly/lure to be constructed in the shape of a naturally occurring fish or insert, such as a flying fish, mayfly or grasshopper. Additional appendages in the form of legs may also be provided on certain of the lures. In another aspect, the body has angularly disposed ends from a central portion which carries the shank of the hook to form the lure in the natural shape of a worm.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2000Date of Patent: April 24, 2001Assignee: B-17 Fly Tackle LimitedInventor: Thomas A.
