20220030843 · 2022-02-03 · ·

Described herein is a fishing flasher. The fishing flasher may comprise a main body portion which may comprise a passage. A fin may extend from a surface of the main body portion proximate to the trailing end of the main body portion. The fishing flasher may also comprise a removable panel which is sized and shaped to fit within the passage and may be held within the passage by at least one fastener. It is also described herein a fishing flasher kit comprising a main body portion comprising a passage, a fin, and a plurality of removable panels. Each removable panel may have a different surface feature on one or both of the first surface and/or the second surface.

SIDETRACKER

A directional guide for a spreader bar includes a body extending along a longitudinal axis. The body includes a first fin and a second fin spaced apart from the first fin. The first and second fins are coupled to the body and are configured to control a vertical position of the body in water through which the body is moving. Grooves are formed in the body. The grooves include a first groove extending along the longitudinal axis of the body, a second groove crossing the first groove and a third groove crossing the first groove. A keel is rotatably coupled to the body. The keel is configured to rotate between the first groove, the second groove, and the third groove. The keel is configured to control a lateral position of the body in water through which the body is moving.

Oscillating fishing lure

The oscillating fishing lure is a fishing lure comprising a jig having a body with a longitudinal axis, an uppermost surface, a rearward surface, at least one hook, said first hook including a shank and a hook end, said shank being surrounded by and protruding rearwardly from said body, and said hook end being spaced rearwardly behind said rearward surface of said body along said longitudinal axis of said body; a blade having an edge proximal said jig body; and a joining mechanism placed between said body and said blade, wherein at least a first portion of the joining mechanism is mechanically affixed to said body and at least one other portion is mechanically coupled to said blade, whereby retrieval of the lure causes the blade to oscillate. The oscillating-blade action imparts a natural swimming motion to the lure, emulating prey species movements.

The invention is a fishing lure that attracts predatory fish including pelagic fish such as istiophoriformes including without limitation billfish, tuna, mackerel, wahoo, sailfish and marlins, by mimicking an injured flying fish. The lure includes a head comprising a fish mask that has two eye sockets on its exterior on which are affixed artificial eyes, and an interior cavity. The lure also includes a body comprising a first squid skirt, and a first wing and a second wing such that each wing is coupled to the head. The head also comprises an opening that is adapted to receive a fishing line therethrough, the opening is shaped to allow the angle of the line to change in the opening so that the lure moves back-and-forth and up-and-down when pulled in water. The action of the wing mimics an injured flying fish when breaking the water's surface.
