摘要 |
A weedless fishing lure is provided, comprising a float (1), a connector (9) and an attractant (15), such as live bait or an insect replica, suspended above the surface of water (20) in which the lure is borne. The float may be disguised as a water plant, fallen tree leaf, twig or other floating detritus or water creature. The attractant (15) may replicate an insect such as a dragonfly, an insect larva (8) such as a hellgrammite, or any other natural or artificial fish bait or prey. The lure is adjustable so that the relative position of the attractant or bait with respect to the float and the water surface may be changed depending on the particular fish sought or the conditions present. In one form, the specific gravity of the invention may be adjusted by adding counterweights (33) to vary its floating and casting properties. In another form of the invention, a snag-free platform is provided comprising a float (1) and a connector (5) suitable for suspending above a body of water a hook or an attractant chosen for specific fish or conditions.
