ABSTRACT:
A fishing lure is disclosed having the capability of being selectively operable between a plurality of different modes of operation. For example, the lure may be arranged to remain on the surface of the water while trolling or it may be arranged to dive below the surface. The body of the lure is of one piece unitary construction having a selectively positionable band or ring captive about its approximate midpoint. An angled deflecting surface is formed on the front of the lure and cooperates with the onrushing water and the weight of the hook which is attached to the movable ring to determine the mode of operation. By selectively moving the ring, and thereby the hook, to one position or another with respect to the deflecting surface, the lure will be made to remain on the surface of the water, dive below the surface, or move to one side or the other with respect to the path of travel of the trolling boat.
