Abstract
A fishing lure comprises an elongated body with a modified cylindrical shape having a first end, a second end, a bottom portion and a top portion. The fishing lure also includes an eye for attaching a fishing line thereto positioned in a central region of the first end of the elongated body, and a plurality of hooks attached to the bottom portion of the elongated body, the second end of the elongated body or any combination thereof. The fishing lure is adapted to rotate 90 degrees from an original position and descend from a surface of a body of water as a force from the fishing line is applied, and return to the original position and float to the surface of the body of water when the force is discontinued.

A fishing lure comprising:
- an elongated body with a modified cylindrical shape having a first end, a second end, a bottom portion and a top portion, the elongated body having a head portion and a tail portion, the head portion comprising a first plane and a second plane formed in the elongated body, the first plane and the second plane meeting at the first end of the elongated body, and the tail portion comprising a tapered cylindrical shape beginning at a posterior end of the head portion and ending at the second end of the elongated body;
- an eye for attaching a fishing line thereto positioned in a central region of the first plane of the head portion;
- and
- a plurality of hooks attached to the bottom portion of the elongated body, the second end of the elongated body or any combination thereof,
- wherein the fishing lure is adapted to rotate 90 degrees from an original position and descend from a surface of a body of water as a force from the fishing line is applied, and return to the original position and float to the surface of the body of water when the force is discontinued.
A fishing lure comprising:
- an elongated body having a first end, a second end, a first side portion, a second side portion, a top portion and a bottom portion;
- an eye for attaching a fishing line thereto positioned on the first side portion at the first end of the elongated body;
- and
- a plurality of hooks attached to the elongated body,
- wherein the fishing lure rotates 90 degrees and descend from a surface of a body of water when a force from the fishing line is applied.
A method of fishing comprising the steps of:
- a) providing a fishing lure comprising:
- i) an elongated body with a modified cylindrical shape having a first end, a second end, a bottom portion and a top portion, the elongated body having a head portion and a tail portion, the head portion comprising a first plane and a second plane formed in the elongated body, the first plane and the second plane meeting at the first end of the elongated body, and the tail portion comprising a tapered cylindrical shape beginning at a posterior end of the head portion and ending at the second end of the elongated body;
- ii) an eye for attaching a fishing line thereto positioned in a central region of the first plane of the head portion;
- and
- iii) a plurality of hooks attached to the bottom portion of the elongated body, the second end of the elongated body or any combination thereof;
- b) attaching a fishing line through the eye of the fishing lure;
- c) casting the fishing lure attached to the fishing line into a body of water;
- d) applying a force to the fishing line thereby causing the fishing lure to rotate 90 degrees from an original position and descend from a surface of the body of water;
- and
- e) discontinuing the application of the force to the fishing line thereby allowing the fishing to return to the original position and float to the surface of the body of water.
