Abstract
A buoyant fishing lure is adapted to be drawn along the surface of water. The lure is in the shape of a rodent or other small creature and has a body coated with fur and a tail composed of a strip of fur. The lure has protruding concave shaped ears. The fur and the ears cause water through which the lure travels to flow outwardly from the body and to cause turbulence in the water.
