Abstract

A fishing lure is disclosed that emanates an audible sound as the lure is drawn through water. Sound is generated by the oscillatory movement of a ball in a bore within the lure, in response to movement of water through the bore. The rate of oscillation, and thus the pitch of the sound, can be adjusted by the user.
