Abstract
A fishing lure is disclosed which comprises a body which has a first end which has an externally attached fishing hook positioned thereat. A second opposite end of the body has a thin plate projecting outwardly therefrom in the shape of a circular arc bib. The bib has a hole therein which is fitted with an omega clip and a split ring so that the omega clip is held loosely in position by the split ring. A fishing line can be attached to the split ring in use. The body has a center of buoyancy closer to the first end than the second end. The location of the center of buoyancy of the lure, the shape of the body and the way in which the line is fastened to the bib contribute to the oscillatory motion of the lure when it traverses through water.
