Abstract

An elongated generally flat body is provided and is slightly elongated egg-shaped in plan including small and large radius front and rear ends. The front end of the body includes structure for attaching a free end of a fishing line thereto and the body includes upper and lower sides. A central upstanding opening is formed through the body and a spinner is journaled in the opening. A forwardly opening hook is anchored relative to and is trailed behind the rear large radius end of the body and the lower side of the body is both longitudinally and transversely convex. Also, the portion of the lower side of the body defining the rear marginal portion of the opening is disposed at a level slightly below the marginal portion of the lower side of the body defining the forward margin of the opening. The spinner is generally S-shaped in axial elevation and is journaled for rotation about a horizontal axis extending transversely of the body.
