A flexible fishing lure designed for use as a "trailer" on a host lure or with a jig head, which flexible fishing lure includes a body portion provided with at least one set of oppositely-disposed legs and designed to fit inside an elongated, hollow sleeve member having a blunt head and tail segments provided on the opposite end thereof. The core member is inserted inside the companion sleeve member with the core member legs protruding from openings located in opposite sides of the sleeve member and the hook element of a host lure or a jig head may then be inserted through the sleeve member and the core member, in order to facilitate retrieval of the fishing lure as a trailer or a primary lure. The flexible fishing lure may be retrieved according to a variety of techniques which cause the core member legs and the sleeve member tail segments to undulate or flutter in the water and attract fish. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, more than one set of legs may be provided on the core member body and extended from multiple openings provided in the sleeve member.
