Abstract
A tube fly formed of assemblable and disassemblable members including a tube body, wherein in assembling the tube fly a decorating member may or may not be placed over the perimeter thereof, a head plug to which a wing member may or may not be provided, a tail plug, a weight member which is selected from a plurality of weight members and is inserted into the tube body, a fly hook, and a connection tube for connecting the tube body and the tube fly hook. The weight member is not used in a case of working the fly near the water surface, but in cases of working the fly in a middle level or a lower level. The head plug and the tail plug are pushed into the ends of the tube body so as to be mounted.
Claims22
In combination for a tube fly comprising assemblable and disassemblable members, said members including:
- a tube body having first and second ends, adapted for mounting of a decorating member over the perimeter thereof and further adapted optionally to receive at least one weight member;
- a head plug, adapted for mounting of a wing member thereon;
- a tail plug;
- and
- at least one weight member for insertion into said tube body;
- wherein said head plug is adapted for demountable mounting to the first end of said tube body and said tail plug is adapted for demountable mounting to the second end, and
- wherein said tube body is further adapted to receive a line, such that when said head plug and said tail plug are mounted to said tube body, the line extends through said tube body from said head plug to said tail plug so that a fly hook is connectable to the line at said tail plug.
The combination according to claim l, wherein the at least one weight member includes a plurality of weight members of different heaviness determined by different materials.
In combination for a tube fly comprising assemblable and disassemblable members, said members including:
- a tube body having first and second ends, adapted for mounting of a decorating member over the perimeter thereof and further adapted optionally to receive at least one weight member;
- at least one weight member for insertion into said tube body;
- a head plug, adapted for mounting of a wing member thereon, wherein said head plug is adapted for demountable mounting to the first end of said tube body;
- and
- a connector for detachably connecting a fly hook and a line;
- wherein said tube body is further adapted to receive said connector, such that when said head plug is mounted to the first end of said tube body, with said connector extending through said tube body from said head plug to the second end, a fly hook is connectable to the connector at the second end.
A tube body for a tube fly, comprising:
- a tube member serving as a fly body;
- and
- a decorating member for being placed over the perimeter of said tube member, wherein the tube member is adapted both
- for removable insertion thereinto of a selected one of any of a plurality of weight members of different heaviness, or for selective insertion of no weight member so that said tube body is empty during use of the tube fly, and
- for dismountably mounting at one end thereof a head plug, and for dismountably mounting a tail plug at an opposite end thereof, such that either with or without one of the weight members, a tube fly is assembled.
A tube fly, comprising:
- a tube body including a tube member having first and second ends, said tube member having means for receiving therein any one of a plurality of weight members, the weight members of different heaviness;
- a head plug demountably mounted to the first end of said tube body;
- a tail plug demountably mounted to the second end of said tube body;
- and
- at least one weight member for insertion into said tube body,
- wherein said tube fly is adapted to removably receive a line extending through said head plug, said tube body and said tail plug, so that a fly hook is connectable to the line at said tail plug.
A tube fly, comprising:
- a tube body including a tube member having first and second tube body ends, said tube member having means for receiving therein any one of a plurality of weight members, the weight members of different heaviness;
- a head plug demountably mounted to the tube body first end;
- and
- a connector, removably received in said tube body with a first connector end disposed at the tube body first end and a second connector end disposed at the tube body second end, said connector having means at the tube body first end for detachable attachment to a line and means at the tube body second end for detachably attachment of a fly hook.
