Fishing lure

A fishing lure comprising:

• an elongated body having a weight distribution creating a negative buoyancy;
• the body having a tapered shape with a leading end and a spaced apart trailing end;
• the body having a top portion and a bottom portion, a first angled channel and a second angled channel respectively defined therein;
• a reflective flat planar strip disposed along a longitudinal axis of each angled channel for enhancing the visual attraction of the lure to game fish;
• a wire insert extending the length of the body, the wire insert having opposing ends, one end protruding from the leading end of the lure and the other end protruding from the trailing end of the lure;
• a weight element integrally molded to the wire insert for shifting rearward the center of gravity of the lure;
• the wire insert having means at the leading end for attaching to a fishing line, and means at the trailing end for attaching to a fish hook,
• wherein in the retrieval of the lure, the lure is caused to swim on a water surface with the trailing end submersed in the water and water being forced up one of the angled channels over the leading end to thereby create the appearance of a fleeing baitfish to therefore promote strikes from game fish.
