Abstract

A fishing system is presented wherein a fishing lure may be made to operate at predetermined optimum depths as a function of changes in the effective density of the fishing lure assembly which is accomplished by the selective use of hooks, having predetermined weights, attached to the lure by hook hangers which utilize a bore formed in the lower body as part of the connection mechanism.
