A fishing lure is described which has a body resembling a fish of prey, and having two spinners attached to the body and extending forwardly from the body, such that the lure resembles a fish chasing after a prey of its own. Predator fish are known to take advantage of another fish being distracted while preying on a fish or insect, and striking during this distraction. The spinners that are attached to the body must be very efficient and low drag for the lure to operate properly. Each spinner has a rectangular planar body with a center axis, and portions extending to either side of the center axis. The portions to either side have leading and trailing portions which are alternately bent upwardly and downwardly. These upwardly and downwardly bent portions are bent a constant amount across the leading and trailing edges, creating more spinning action for a constant drag, or a lower drag for a constant spinning action. As the spinner is drawn through the water, the alternately bent portions cause the spinner to rotate about the center axis. The lure with the attached spinners has the advantage of having less drag as it is drawn through the water than similar lures of the prior art. A diving lip can be added to the lure body to make it a diving crank bait.
