ABSTRACT:
An improved fishing lure (10, 110) embodying the concepts of the present invention is adaptable for use with a fish hook (11, 26, 30, or 111). The lure (10, 110) comprises a body (12, 112) having a forward, head portion (13, 113) and at least one trailing appendage portion (14, 114). The body (12, 112) exhibits supple flexibility, at least when immersed in water, and a plurality of relatively long fibers (15, 115) extend outwardly from at least one surface (16, 116) on the head portion (13, 113). To facilitate use of the lure (10 or 110) the head portion (13, 113) is adapted to be penetrated by the point (18, 28, 118 or 31 and 32) of a fish hook (11, 111, 26 or 30). In one embodiment the head portion (113) is also adapted to be interconnected with the shank (130) of the hook (111). The body (12, 112) is preferably planar with at least one surface (16, 116), and the relatively long fibers (15, 115) extend outwardly from that surface (16, 116). Ideally, the body (12, 112) is natural sheepskin, and the relatively long fibers (15, 115) are the natural wool fibers presented from the sheepskin. Moreover, the body (12, 112) may be chemically treated in order to assure that the sheepskin will exhibit supple flexibility, even upon re-immersion in water after having been dried.
