DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a lure fishing lure for black bass, bluegill, and other fish eaters such as char, yamame, and suzuki, and more specifically, a plug, spoon, spinner, and worm. The present invention relates to a so-called minnow of a type in which the whole resembles a small fish.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The above-mentioned minnow is constructed by providing fishing hooks on the abdomen and tail of a simulated fish body that resembles a small fish, while providing a resistance plate below the lower jaw of the simulated fish body. Floating minnows of the type where the resistance plate dive underwater due to water pressure along with the winding of the road thread and pulling the lure), Deep diving minnows of the type where the resistance plate dives sharply and deeply with reeling, and floating minnow However, they are roughly classified into sinking minnows with the same weight and embedded weight.

At the time of fishing, a minnow suitable for the fish to be fished is selected, and the minnow is continuously reeled, or the reeling is intermittently performed, during which the rod tip is moved in small increments. The minnows are operated in a complicated manner so as to inspire the fish to prey by repeatedly adding water and intermittently stopping reeling and rod work.

[0004]

However, continuous reeling of minnows only causes the minnows to move forward and backward, and even if rodwork is added intermittently,
Only the action of the minnow rushing instantaneously is added, and when the reeling and the rod work are intermittently stopped, the minnow simply floats or sinks during that time, causing the minnow to twist right and left. As a result, it was impossible to make small fish behave as if they were swimming naturally.

[0005] Alternatively, in addition to reeling and rod work, the technique of swinging the rod to the left and right can be used to make the minnow bend left and right. In some places, it is difficult to add such movements, especially for beginners, and when swinging the rod left and right, the reeling stops temporarily, so the movement of the minnow stops for a moment. The left and right bends will be unnatural, and the fish will be alarmed.

[0006] The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and its purpose is to swing the rod without swinging left and right.
By making the minnows continuously bend to the left and right with reeling, to make the fish appear to be swimming naturally, to make the fish more motivated to prey,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a minnow for lure fishing that can improve fishing results.

[0007]

In order to achieve this object, a minnow for lure fishing according to the present invention integrates a pair of left and right pectoral fins that protrude slightly to the left and right sides of a simulated fish body, and moves from the center of gravity of the pectoral fin. Also, the front position is pivotally attached to the simulated fish body so as to be swingable about the front vertical axis, and the front end side of the caudal fin is pivotally attached to the tail of the simulated fish body about the rear vertical axis. It is characterized in that it has an interlocking mechanism that swings the caudal fin in the direction opposite to the swinging direction of the pectoral fin in conjunction with the swinging of the pectoral fin.

[0008]

When the minnow for lure fishing of the present invention configured as described above is reeled, water pressure is applied to the left and right pectoral fins as the minnow is advanced, and the reeling direction is delicate due to bending of the rod. Due to various changes, the flow of water, and the occurrence of vortices on the back of the pectoral fin, the pressure of the pectoral fin is inevitably unbalanced, so one of the left and right pectoral fins approaches the body side Conversely, the other swings in the direction away from the body side, and the caudal fin swings in the direction opposite to the swinging direction with the swinging of this pectoral fin, so that this caudal fin is rudder, The fish body turns forward in the direction in which the caudal fin swings.

[0009] When the simulated fish body makes a forward turn in this manner, the road thread projecting from the reel is also swung in the turning direction, and if reeling is continued here, the minnow Turns so that it is pulled in the opposite direction, and large water pressure is applied to the pectoral fin, which had been rocking away from the body side, and the pectoral fin rocked away from this body side. The moving part swings closer to the body side, and with this swing, the caudal fin swings in the opposite direction to the swinging direction of this pectoral fin, The simulated fish body turns forward in the opposite direction.

[0010] While the reeling is continued in this way, the simulated fish repeatedly reciprocates forward and backward in the left-right direction, so that the small fish can swim naturally without using the technique of swinging the rod left and right. Thus, the minnow can be operated to bend right and left. In other words, the general fishing method of simple reeling, continuous or intermittent, makes the minnow bend left and right in a natural state so as not to keep the fish alert, without choosing a large place. And even beginners can easily realize it.

[0011]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a minnow simulating a small fish for lure fishing according to the present invention. As shown in FIGS. And a ring 2 for connecting the warp yarn a
Fishing hooks 3 and 3 called anchors are provided on the abdomen and tail of the simulated fish body 1, and a pair of left and right pectoral fins 4 and 4 are provided on both sides of the simulated fish body 1 so as to protrude slightly. The caudal fin 5 is provided at the tail of the simulated fish body 1.

The above simulated fish body 1 comprises a back part 1a and a belly part 1b adhered to each other, and has concave parts b and c formed from the gill part to the tail part, respectively. And
With respect to the peripheral wall d of the concave portion b of the back portion 1a, an opening e is formed so as to open a portion corresponding to the pectoral fins 4, 4 and the caudal fin 5, and an appropriate space is provided before and after the center of the fish body of the concave portion b. The opened vertical front axis f and the rear vertical axis h are suspended in a row.

On the other hand, the left and right pectoral fins 4 and 4 are integrally formed so as to present a mountain shape in plan view, and the apex portion of the mountain shape is pivotally connected to the front longitudinal axis f through the opening e. The caudal fin 5 has its front end pivotally attached to the rear vertical axis h. Then, the integrated left and right pectoral fins 4, 4 and caudal fin 5 interlock with the swing of the pectoral fins 4, 4 about the front longitudinal axis f, and oppose the swinging direction of the pectoral fins 4, 4. Caudal fin 5 in the direction
Are linked by an interlocking mechanism 6 that swings

Specifically, the left and right pectoral fins 4 are integrated.
4, a first arm 7 is continuously provided from the apex of the chevron toward the caudal fin 5 side, while the caudal fin 5 has a front end wrapped around the rear end of the first arm 7. The two arms 8 are connected in series, and the locking pin i provided at the rear end of the first arm 7 is locked and connected to the longitudinal hole j formed at the front end of the second arm 8, The left and right pectoral fins 4, 4 and the caudal fin 5 are configured to swing back and forth.

The minnow having the above structure is connected to the yarn a wound on a reel, and is thrown to a point where a fish eater is assumed to be present by operating the rod to be reeled. When the minnow advances along with this reeling, as shown in FIG. 4, the water pressure is applied to the left and right pectoral fins 4 and 4 as shown in FIG. Due to the change and the flow of water, the manner in which the water pressure is applied to the pectoral fins 4 and 4 becomes unbalanced, so that the pectoral fins 4 and 4 swing left or right (in the example shown, the left pectoral fin portion) Moves away from the body).

When the pectoral fins 4 oscillate in this manner, the fins 4 and 4 are swung in the opposite direction (right side) to the oscillating direction of the pectoral fins 4 and 4 via the interlocking mechanism 6. The caudal fin 5 swings, and the caudal fin 5 is used as a rudder to simulate the fish body 1.
Makes a forward turn P in one of the left and right directions (right side).

When the simulated fish body 1 makes a forward turn in this manner, the thread a projecting from the reel is also swung in the turning direction, and if reeling is continued here, this time, Turned so that the minnow was pulled in the direction opposite to the previous turning direction, and large water pressure was applied to the left pectoral fin 4 part that had been swinging away from the body side until this time, The left pectoral fin 4 part approaches the left side of the body side, and the opposite right pectoral fin part 4 swings away from the right body side of the simulated fish body 1, and the entire pectoral fin 4
With this swing to the right, the caudal fin 5 swings to the left in the opposite direction, and by using this caudal fin 5 as a rudder, the simulated fish body 1 moves in the other direction to the left and right (left side opposite to the tip). ).

As described above, while the reeling is continued, the simulated fish body 1 smoothly repeats the forward and backward turnings P and Q in the left-right direction, and is simple without using the technique of swinging the rod left and right. Only by reeling operation,
As if a small fish swim naturally, the minnow can be made to bend right and left.

That is, the continuous or intermittent reeling operation itself, in which the minnow moves forward and instantaneously, pushes the minnow in a natural state so as not to keep the fish alert. This makes it possible to easily make a right and left bend without choosing a large place and even for a beginner.

In the above embodiment, the left and right pectoral fins 4, 4
Are integrated into a chevron, and the vertex of the chevron is set to the previous vertical axis f.
The left and right pectoral fins 4 and 4 can be integrated into a trapezoidal shape. Also, the pivotal position based on the front vertical axis f may be any position as long as the pivotal position is ahead of the center of gravity of the integrated left and right pectoral fins 4.

If the pivotal position by the front longitudinal axis f is behind the center of gravity of the left and right pectoral fins 4, the pectoral fins 4 are pushed back as the simulated fish 1 advances. Since it becomes difficult to return the pectoral fins 4 and 4 to the original posture, the pivotal position by the front vertical axis f is positioned forward of the center of gravity of the left and right pectoral fins 4 and 4, The left and right pectoral fins 4 and 4 need only be pivotally connected so as to be in a so-called jarring state.

[0022]

As described above, according to the minnow for lure fishing according to the present invention, the left and right pectoral fins are integrated so that the pectoral fin and the caudal fin can swing in directions opposite to each other. So, without using the technique of swinging the rod left and right, the simple reeling operation itself makes it possible to make the minnow bend left and right as if a small fish swims naturally, without choosing a wide place and Even beginners can easily realize it.

That is, by adding the minnow's bend action that does not keep the fish alert, to the action of causing the minnow to advance or instantaneously push the minnow, the fish can be further motivated to prey. It is possible to improve fishing results, and it is possible to provide lure fishing minnows that can contribute greatly to the enjoyment of fishing sports and the development of the sporting goods industry. It was.
