Abstract
A fishing lure designed to attract fish by means of having a smell and taste of natural baits, so that a fisherman may catch more fish; the invention of the present application presenting several different models thereof wherein a basic feature includes a hollow lure body containing a cut or ground up frozen bait of cotton saturated with a combination of liquid fish extracts for salt and fresh water fishing; the hollow body being perforated with openings so that the content can slowly ooze outwardly and into the water around the lure.
Claims1
A fishing lure resembling a fish comprising a fish head and a hollow body, with a tail including a duct through the head communicating with the interior of said body including a rear duct from said body, said body containing material emitting the odor and taste of fish, whereby water entering the body mixes with said material and is emitted therefrom to attract fish, said tail having means for attachment to a fishing line in combination with a second means for causing flow from said rear duct responsive to the fishing line being pulled, whereby said second means opposes resiliently the pull on the fishing line and returns to a normal condition when there is no pull on the line, including a normally closed check valve disposed in the first said duct, said second means comprising a bellows with perforations engaging the fishing line to cause contraction of said bellows when the line is pulled said bellows being secured to a rear portion of said body and enclosing said material whereby contraction of said bellows causes material in said bellows to flow out of said bellows, releasing the pull on the fishing line causing expansion of said bellows to expel a mixture of said material and water through said outlet.
