ABSTRACT:
A reflective fishing lure provides a changing visual display to attract a fish. An elongated, substantially hollow body mounts one or more hooks. Rigid interior walls subdivide the body into a pair of air-filled end cavities spaced apart by an intermediate, hollow, transparent chamber. The intermediate chamber is substantially filled with a viscous fluid. The fluid suspends a plurality of reflective particles such as glitter and captures an air bubble. The particles are agitated by movement of the fluid and the air bubble within the chamber in response to manipulation of the lure body. The moving particles create the appearance of a changing reflective surface, and thus simulate natural bait action. The stability and responsiveness of the lure to manipulation by the fisherman may vary depending upon the relative volume of fluids and air within the chamber. Various tints may be added to the fluid and various colored particles may be used to create different visual impressions. An alternative embodiment is configured as a reflective spoon for use with fixed line poles.
