ABSTRACT:
A fishing lure includes a generally cylindrical body with a head end and a rear section, the head end being of larger diameter than the rear section. A plurality of bosses are formed on the surface of the rear section. A sleeve member consisting of a ring having a cut through its height and a lip around its periphery at one end surrounds the body at the smaller diameter end. One or more streamers are attached to the rear of the body. These streamers are of a generally known kind consisting of a flat plastic member having a large number of separated strands and an attachment end which is undivided and which is wrapped around the rear section of the lure. The attachment ends of the streamers for the lures of this invention are perforated or cut with cut outs or ports to match the bosses so that as they fit over these bosses as they are wrapped around the rear end of the body and are thereby partially held in place by the bosses. The sleeve member is slidable over the streamers and bosses to secure the streamer or streamers in place. This arrangement makes it possible to change streamers readily without removing the hook assembly or changing the entire lure.
A number of embodiments are disclosed showing variations in the shape and number of the bosses, kinds of hook arrangements, either a passageway through the axis of the lure for a leader or no such passageway and a loop at the front to fasten a leader. One embodiment shows a lure with a body and sleeve which are ovate or elliptical in cross section.
