Abstract
A fishing lure for use in water includes a lure body, a mover assembly and a selector assembly. The mover assembly is coupled to the lure body. The mover assembly includes a mover that selectively moves the lure body through the water. The selector assembly is electrically connected to the mover assembly. The selector assembly includes a plurality of preset speed settings that activate the mover assembly to move the lure body through the water. The plurality of preset speed settings can include (i) a first preset speed setting for moving the mover at a first preset speed, and (ii) a second preset speed setting for moving the mover at a second preset speed that is different than the first preset speed.
Claims20
A fishing lure for use in water, the fishing lure comprising:
- a lure body;
- a hook that is secured to the lure body;
- a mover assembly that is at least partially positioned within the lure body, the mover assembly including a mover that is configured to move the lure body through the water;
- and
- a selector assembly that is electrically connected to the mover assembly, the selector assembly being secured to the lure body, the selector assembly including a plurality of preset speed settings that activate the mover assembly to move the lure body through the water, the plurality of preset speed settings including (i) a first preset speed setting for moving the mover at a first preset speed that is greater than zero, and (ii) a second preset speed setting for moving the mover at a second preset speed that is greater than zero and different than the first preset speed, the plurality of preset speed settings being selectively activated non-remotely by directly manipulating the selector assembly.
A method for manufacturing a fishing lure for use in water, the method comprising the steps of:
- securing a hook to a lure body of the fishing lure;
- securing a selector assembly to the lure body;
- positioning a mover assembly at least partially within the lure body, the mover assembly including a mover that is configured to move the lure body through the water;
- and
- electrically connecting the selector assembly to the mover assembly, the selector assembly including a plurality of preset speed settings that activate the mover assembly to move the lure body through the water, the plurality of preset speed settings including (i) a first preset speed setting for moving the mover at a first preset speed that is greater than zero, and (ii) a second preset speed setting for moving the mover at a second preset speed that is greater than zero and different than the first preset speed, the plurality of preset speed settings being selectively activated non-remotely by directly manipulating the selector assembly.
A fishing lure comprising:
- a lure body;
- a hook that is secured to the lure body;
- a sealable compartment that is positioned substantially within the lure body, wherein the sealable compartment can be selectively filled with a weighting material for selectively adjusting a depth at which the lure body can be positioned within the water;
- a mover assembly that is at least partially positioned within the lure body, the mover assembly including a mover that is configured to move the lure body through the water;
- and
- a selector assembly that is electrically connected to the mover assembly, the selector assembly being secured to the lure body, the selector assembly including a selector member, the selector assembly including a plurality of preset speed settings that activate the mover assembly to move the lure body through the water, the plurality of preset speed settings including (i) a first preset speed setting for moving the mover at a first preset speed that is greater than zero, (ii) a second preset speed setting for moving the mover at a second preset speed that is greater than zero and different than the first preset speed, and (iii) a third preset speed setting for moving the mover at a third preset speed that is different than the first preset speed and the second preset speed, the plurality of preset speed settings being selectively activated non-remotely by directly manipulating the selector assembly.
