ABSTRACT:
A spinner bait includes a pair of fishhooks secured together in a generally V-shaped configuration and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees. Each of the fishhooks is of conventional design and comprises a barbed hook and a wire lead integrally connected thereto and terminating in a connecting eye. A lead sinker is positioned on the wire lead of the first fishhook proximate the barbed hook. A spinner blade is rotatably secured to the barbed hook of the second fishhook. In an alternative embodiment, a flexible skirt of plastic or rubber streamers is additionally provided on the wire lead of the first fishhook proximate the barbed hook and is configured so as to partially conceal the hook. Once coupled together, the fishhooks are constrained to move in concert and are not free swinging and are arranged so that the arcuate portions of their respective barbed hooks face each other. In another alternative embodiment, the two fishhooks are integrally formed from a single piece of wire.
