ABSTRACT:
A fish lure having a body with a longitudinally extending plunger reciprocably mounted therein and having provision for connection to a fishing line at its forward end, a hook being mounted on the body. A coil spring is interposed between the rear end of the plunger and the front end of the body for biasing the body into a forwardly telescoped position on the plunger. A latch on the body latches the same in a rearwardly extended position on the plunger accompanied by stressing of the spring. The latch mechanism has a triggering member so arranged that when a fish bites down on the lure the triggering member is actuated freeing the spring to snap the body and hook forwardly on the plunger for setting the hook in the mouth of the fish. In the illustrated embodiment a guard is provided for normally shielding the point of the hook, the guard being coupled to the triggering member so that when the guard is depressed the hook is exposed followed by actuation of the triggering member for setting the hook.
