ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for forming closed loops or eyes at opposite ends of a length of wire especially useful in the manufacture of fishing lures wherein a plurality of attractive objects (beads, etc.) are strung on the wire between the closed loops or eyes. The apparatus provides mechanism for forming one straight end portion of the wire into a generally V shape to provide an open loop at the apex of the V, following which a twisting mechanism engages and twists the loop to wrap one leg of the V several times about the other leg so as to close the loop and thereby to produce an eye. The wire is turned end for end and the operation of the mechanism is repeated to form an eye at the other end of the wire.
