A fishing lure in which a hook is connected to the body of the lure in a selectable angular orientation with respect to the longitudinal axis of the body. An elastomeric mounting having a bore is attached to the body. The hook is attached to a leader, and the leader is attached to the line. The connection between the line and leader may include a crimp connector. A user may insert the connector into the mounting bore at any desired rotational angle. The hook is thus frictionally retained in the mounting bore. When the lure is trolled through the water, the hook maintains itself in an orientation with the shank parallel to the leader and the pointed end curving upwardly toward the surface. This orientation maximizes the likelihood that a striking fish will become hooked.
