Artificial lures, fishhook constructions, and a method for creating the same are provided. The fishhook has a shank portion attachable to a fishing line, a bend portion extending arcuately from the shank to terminate in a pointed tip, and a blade projecting from the shank. When used in conjunction with an artificial lure, the blade imparts movement to the lure to improve its presentation in the water. There may be two blades positioned in opposed relationship that diverge away or converge toward one another. Alternately, the blades may be staggered along the length of the shank. The blade(s) may be joined to the shank with a binding member that may be a slotted piece molded about the shank and having circumferential grooves formed therein. The blade and binding member may be plastic and formed as a single piece construction or as two separate pieces.
