ABSTRACT:
An artificial fishing bait (A, B) includes a broken bill (18, 18') connected to a body (10, 40) by a pivot (29, 18a and 48, 46) enhanced by a lateral slot (16). A spoon (22) of the bill may be weighted at (24) for deeper diving. Plug (A) has a loose omnidirectional pivot (29, 18a) which facilitates natural wobbling of the artificial bait when weighted for depths of 40 feet or more. Shank (30) may be reduced relative to slot (16) and bill opening (18a) made considerably larger than pivot pin 29 facilitating omnidirectional pivoting for plug (A). Plug (B) has a lateral pivot (46, 48) which exhibits side-to-side diversions (52, 56) produced by lateral pivoting only. The amplitudes (52a, 56a) may be reduced to more closely simulate the darting path of bait fish when the spoon (22) is limited by a removable stop peg (50).
