ABSTRACT:
A weedless roll-over lure with a weighted lure body with a rounded top and a flat bottom so that the weighted lure body, upon coming to rest, rolls over onto the flat bottom. A hook shank is incorporated into the lure body along the flat bottom. The hook shank has an eye in one end and a curved bend with a hook at the other that is bent towards the top of the weighted lure body. A protective, fish attracting, roll-over, shape, formed from a large number of filaments, is attached to the weighted lure body so that the hook, hook impaled bait and lure enhancements are protected from fouling. Further, the conical shaped protective form enhances the ability of the device to roll over in that the filaments are stiff and the conical shape forms a surface upon which the device will roll until the flat bottom is below the top. While providing protection of the bait and the hook from weeds, etc., the conical shaped filaments also act to slow the rate of descent of the device.
