Abstract
A connector for a flexible fishing lure with an interchangeable swimbait is an apparatus used as a fastener for a modular fishing lure. The apparatus includes a lure body, a lure tail, a male connector, and a female connector. The lure body and the lure tail mirror the body and the tail of a live bait. The lure tail is made of soft-plastic material. The lure body is removably connected with the lure body with the male connector and the female connector. The male connector is integrated with the lure tail and the female connector is integrated with the lure body. Moreover, the lure tail is molded around a stabilizing frame and at least one panel of the male connector. The male connector latches with the female connector and is easily separated so that the lure tail may be interchanged.
