20230055970 · 2023-02-23 ·

A fishing lure having interchangeable inserts includes a lure body having a front end, a rear end, a left side, a right side, a top side, and a bottom side. At least the left side, but in some embodiments also the right side, includes an insert slot with an opening proximate the rear end. The insert slot has at least one pair of opposing flanges. An insert engages the insert slot and has a catch at a forward end thereof adapted for engaging the snap aperture of the lure body. An outer surface of the insert with a natural attractant is visible through the insert slot between the flanges. The insert is preferably one of many available inserts that all have varying outer surface characteristics, such as color, pattern, texture, attachments, and the like. A fishing lure attachment cooperative with the inserts is used with existing fishing lures.

20230092007 · 2023-03-23 ·

An apparatus and system to attract fish with an acoustical lure comprising the following components: a lure, a loudspeaker, a slot, a hook. By emitting a sound through a loudspeaker predator fish are then attracted to the lure. The lure may be textured or colored to further attract predator fish. A user of an apparatus and system to attract fish with an acoustical lure would select the type of lure style for the predator fish desired, select a loudspeaker with a recording of the appropriate bait fish, insert the loudspeaker into the slot in the lure, attach the lure to a fishing rod and line, activate the loudspeaker, cast the line to an appropriate area to fish.

A fishing lure system includes a link and link enclosure and a variety of attachments. The enclosure includes a channel dimensioned to snugly fit over the link and defined by walls of a rigid material such as to resist deformation of the link when the link is under stress (e.g., a pulling fish). The link may be attached to a spinnerbait frame that is constructed of a specially looped elongated component (e.g., wire) forming two legs at roughly 90 degrees to each other. The frame and loop are formed through a series of wire bends that support the 90 degree angle against deformation when the frame is under stress. The link may be attached to a swimbait body constructed with a cavity within which the lure’s hook is substantially concealed. The link or frame may be attached to a spinnerbait blade comprising an outer blade encapsulating and inner feature.

The fishing lure includes a head with a bell-shaped tip that collects water as the lure moves. The water is directed through channels, creating cavitation bubbles at the channel outlets. The body houses the electronics and weights. The body includes holes in the form of mock gills that allow water to enter. The water activates the electronics, causing the light to begin pulsing. The electronics include batteries and a light source—preferably an LED—with associated circuit board, within a waterproof shell or cover. In the preferred embodiment, a switch protrudes from the waterproof shell, the switch activated by water. The body also includes internal weights, the internal weights moving within channels within the body. The internal weights knock against each other within the channels, creating a clacking sound.

A lure includes a body, a weight, a guide member and an elastic member. The body is hollow and has a head in a front portion and a tail in a rear portion thereof. The weight is inside of the body so as to be movable in a front-rear direction. The guide member is in the body and configured to guide movement of the weight in the front-rear direction. The elastic member is in the body and is configured to generate an energizing force to move the weight in a forward direction. The weight is movable backward against the energizing force of the elastic member and one of the weight and the elastic member is inserted into an inside of the other.

LURE WITH REMOVABLE TAIL

A lure having a body with a line tie and one or more hooks attached to the body. The body may be formed by a head portion and a tail portion that is removably attached to and from the head portion. The lure may also include one or more noisemaking elements.

Fishing Lure Component
20230292724 · 2023-09-21 ·

A fishing lure apparatus designed to attract fish to the fishing pole. The lure apparatus is comprised of a lure body and a plurality of fins. The fins are angled away from the lure body in opposing orientation. The body has an attachment loop at the top of the lower body to secure the lure apparatus to a swivel device, furthermore, connecting it to a lure frame, which is connected to a fishing pole via fishing line. The lower body is hollow, forming a plurality of hollow cavities. Contained within the cavities are metal spheres. As the lure is pulled through the water, the base rotates, due to water resistance against the opposing tailfins. When the body is rotating, the internal ridges extending inward, tumble and deflect the spheres, causing them to ricochet against the rigid internal walls of the lower body, creating a continuous rattling sound.
