ABSTRACT:
An artificial bait is provided which accurately simulates a wounded or dying natural prey of game fish. The bait includes an upper lure body section having a weighted bill, an interior channel for receiving a fishing line and a vertical channel for retaining a hook support wire, a lower tail section having a tail actuator mechanism, and a hinge mechanism. The tail actuator mechanism includes an actuator wire having a tying eye at each end and a counterweight in the proximity of one end. Operation of the invention causes the bill to dip and rise in the water as the tails moves between a horizontal and vertical position, and the lure stays suspended without moving forward. Cranking the bait forward causes the body of the lure to wobble through the water, similar to an injured fish, unable to right itself.
