ABSTRACT:
A subsurface fishing lure having a generally oval body of flat sheet material which extends longitudinally and resembles a minnow silhouette. A head portion of the body has an eyelet for attaching a leader with a fishing line. A concave disc is transversely mounted on the head portion just behind the fishing line eyelet. A tail portion of the body is divided into an enlarged upper portion and a smaller lower portion. The lower portion of the tail has an eyelet for attaching a hook. A longitudinal axis of the body bisects the line and hook eyelets. A rearward portion of the body including the tail slopes upwardly from the longitudinal axis to position the enlarged upper portion of the tail above the turbulent flow of water which is caused by the interaction of the disc and water as the lure is drawn through the water during retrieval. The concave disc, body and upper tail portion combine to provide several different actions of a live minnow swimming through the water by varying the speed in which the lure is retrieved.
