A fishhook holder 10 is configured to hold a fishhook against a soft lure and is made of a resin material, and includes a base 20 configured to contact an outer surface of the soft lure and a tapered shaft 30 protruding from the base 20 and configured to extend through the soft lure. The shaft 30 includes a basal end 30a coupled to the base 20, a distal end 30b opposite the basal end 30a in an axial direction of the shaft 30, an insertion hole 31 located between the basal end 30a and the distal end 30b and configured such that the fishhook extends through the insertion hole 31, and a mark 33 located between the insertion hole 31 and the distal end 30b and indicating a reference position in a case where a portion including the distal end 30b is cut off from the shaft 30.

The present invention is a soft plastic lure, constructed of a plastic, semi-plastic or combination soft and hard-soft plastics, where the nose of a lure's head exhibits a solid area of a hook anchor for guidance into an internalized receiving channel, proximate to the lure's dorsal area, with a rearwardly attached chamber tab or tabs, at the rear wall of the channel, which provides guide of a hook from said nose, into said channel, through an accepting tab, or tabs, wherein the inserted hook is secured where the hook's point is exterior and front-facing. The soft plastic lure is thereby capable, through proper acceptance and placement of a hook, of providing a properly guided and secured hook placement into and within the soft plastic lure ensuring correct placement of the hook and thus correct action, and maximum effectiveness of the soft plastic lure.

A fish tail fin connectable to a trailing hook of a lure, wherein the fish tail fin has a body, which has a first end directed towards a main body of the lure when connected to the lure, an opposite distal end, a longitudinal axis defined therebetween, an upper tail side and a lower tail side, said upper tail side and lower tail side diverging from each other towards the distal end, wherein the fish tail fin is configured to have a buoyancy.

A fishing lure includes a hook assembly and a body assembly. The hook assembly includes a hook, an inverted bill coupled to the hook, and an eyelet coupled to an underneath surface of the inverted bill. The body assembly is coupled to the hook assembly.

The present disclosure relates to a fishing lure assembly that is comprised of a rigid jig head with and a soft cavity with a specially structured cavity. The improved lure facilitates a secure attachment mechanism that allows for interchangeability of the soft bodies of the lure. The unique geometry of the ridged section of the jig head and the corresponding cavity within the soft body of the lure are designed to interlock without damaging the soft body.

A topwater floating lure comprises a body and at least one fishhook. The body has a density to float on water and is compressible to have a resting configuration and a compressed configuration in response to a fish bite. The body has at least one channel defined in an outer surface thereof. The at least one fishhook is connected to the body and cooperates with a corresponding one of the at least one channel. The fishhook comprises a shank, a bend and a point where a hook gap is defined between the point and the shank. The hook gap is occupied by part of the body in the resting position, and the shank is aligned with the corresponding channel and is displaced therein when the body moves to the compressed configuration to increase hook gap exposure.
