ABSTRACT:
A weedless fish lure has an elongated spoon-shaped body defining a bulbous outer surface on one side of a complementarily-shaped recess on the other side. The body has a generally longitudinally-extending slot, and at least one resilient hook mounted within the spoon-shaped body recess. The hook has a shank portion at one end and extends therefrom through a medial portion to a pointed portion at the other end. The shank portion is anchored to the spoon-shaped body to position the pointed end portion adjacent the slot so that the pointed end portion is capable of frictional engagement with an end of the slot remote from the shank portion to retain the pointed end portion substantially wholly within the recess with the hook in a resiliently deflected condition in which the medial portion projects from the recess on the other side of the body. The pointed end portion is capable of movement through the slot so as to project in a fish catching manner from the bulbous outer surface of the body when pressure is applied by the mouth of the fish to the projecting medial portion in a direction to overcome the frictional engagement and cause the resiliency of the hook to spring the pointed end portion through the slot to a fish catching position.
