ABSTRACT:
A bait harness for holding a bait in the form of a fish or fillet for casting, trolling or jigging is designed to be virtually weedless in use. The harness includes a clamp of highly resilient spring material bent so that integral opposed sides converge to an abutting normally closed position for gripping the jaws of a bait fish and include a movable arms means for selectively opening the sides. In one embodiment, the clamp is secured to a buoyant artificial fishing plug provided with a removable fastening means for securing the tail portion of the fish bait to the shank of the hook. In a second embodiment, the clamp carries a pair of multi-barbed hooks connected respectively to the clamp sides for disposition at opposite sides of the bait. In a third embodiment, the clamp is secured to a spoon provided with a trailing single hook, and the forward end of the spoon is extended forwardly, upwardly and rearwardly to present a leading curled end terminating in a small lip that is connected by a rubber band to the barbed end of the single hook and thus enhances its weedless capability. In a fourth embodiment, the clamp is secured to a lead head jig.
