Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明はルアーに関し、更に詳細には棒状体を主要な構成要素とし、水中で微小な振れを起こすことにより例えば管理釣り場などでの使用に適する棒状のルアーに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
近年、管理釣り場においてニジマス、ヤマメ、イワナなどの釣りを楽しむ人が増えている。従来、これらの魚も含めて多くの種類の魚に対応したルアーが開発されており、代表的には、スピナー、スプーン、プラグなどが知られている。これらのルアーは、対象魚が興味を示すような形状や色彩を主たる要素にして形成されたものである。
【0003】
例えば、ニジマスを釣る場合には、ブレードや胴の部分に赤色が少し入っているスピナーが使用されるように、従来のルアーでは、これを魚が水中で見ると小魚などと見間違える形状や色彩で形成されていた。他方、魚が水中で小魚などと見間違えるような動きをするルアーとしてスプーンが知られている。このスプーンは、その独特の構造や形状によって水中で振りを起こさせて魚に興味を引かせ、これを追いかけさせるようにするものである。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
このようなことから、小さくて軽量であっても、管理釣り場のような水勢の弱い場所で微小な動きを連続して起し、ニジマス、ヤマメ、イワナなどに興味を引かせることができ、同時に大きなサイズの魚を対象とする場合でも、同様に微小な動きを連続して起こして興味を引かせることができるようなルアーの提供が望まれていた。
【0005】
本発明の目的は、かかる従来の要望に応えるためになされたもので、水勢の弱い例えば管理釣り場などでも水中で微小な動きを連続して起こさせて対象魚に興味を引かせるルアーを提供することにある。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明のルアーは、前述した技術的課題を解決するために以下のように構成されている。すなわち、本発明は、前端部と後端部とを有し、水平線に沿って延びるほぼ一様な太さの棒状体と、両端部近傍のそれぞれに形成され、フックとラインを取り付け可能な貫通穴とを備えるルアーにおいて、両端部には水平線に対して所定の角度を成して傾く互いに平行な傾斜面が形成され、棒状体には水平線上において棒状体の全長を二等分する中心点から両端部のうちの一方に偏位した部位に水平線に対する垂直方向へ向かって延びる突起部が形成されていることを特徴とする。
【0007】
このルアーをキャストして水中に沈めると、棒状体の周面から突出した突起部を下にして棒状体がほぼ水平になり、ラインを引くと、この突起部を支点として棒状体の両端部が激しく且つ細かく振れ、これにより魚が水生生物と見間違えて食い付く。
【0008】
本発明のルアーは、前述した特徴に加えて更に以下のような特徴も備える。すなわち、本発明のルアーでは、棒状体の各傾斜面が、水平線に対して20〜70度の角度で形成されていることを特徴とする。このように棒状体の各傾斜面の傾斜角度を変えることで、水中でのルアーの動きに様々な変化を出すことができる。また、本発明のルアーでは、貫通穴を傾斜面に形成することが好ましい。更に、本発明のルアーでは、突起部を棒状体の材料より比重の大きい材料で形成することが好ましい。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明のルアーを図示の実施形態について更に詳細に説明する。図1〜図3には本発明の一実施形態に係るルアー10が示されている。図1はルアー10の斜視図、図2はルアー10の下面図、図3は水平に延びるルアー10の両端部を部分的に破断して示す側面図である。
【0010】
このルアー10は、前端部(図1〜図3で見て左側の端部)と後端部とを有し、水平線に沿って延びるほぼ一様な太さで、断面円形の棒状体11を備えている。この棒状体11の両端部における端面は、この棒状体11が延びる水平線に沿い、かつ棒状体11の断面中心点を通る中心線11aに対して傾斜する傾斜面12a、12bとされ、これらの各傾斜面12a、12bは互いに平行に形成されている。
【0011】
この傾斜面12a、12bの傾斜角度θ(図3参照)は中心線11aに対して20〜70度の角度で形成されていることが好ましく、より好ましくは約35度である。棒状体11の両傾斜面12a、12bがこのような傾斜角度で形成されていると、ルアー10の水中での動きにおいて棒状体11の前後端部が後述する突起部13の存在と相まって細かく振れることになる。この棒状体11の両傾斜面12a、12bの先端部にはそれぞれ貫通穴14、15が形成されている。
【0012】
図示の例において、前端部側の傾斜面12aに形成された貫通穴14にはラインがスプリットリング(いずれも図示せず)などを介して繋がれる。また、後端部側の貫通穴15には図示されているようにフック16がスプリットリング17を介して取り付けられる。ただし、ルアー10は、貫通穴14にフック16を取り付け、貫通穴15にラインを取り付けて使用してもよい。
【0013】
図1及び図3に示されるように、前端部側の傾斜面12aを斜め上方に向け、かつ後端部側の傾斜面12bを斜め下方に向くようにほぼ水平に置いた時に下側となる周面部には、棒状体11の全長Lを二等分する中心点(図3において、この二等分中心点を通り、棒状体11の中心線11aに直交する二等分線を符号18で示す)より前端部側に偏位した部位に突起部13が垂直方向、即ち棒状体11の径方向外方に突出して形成されている。
【0014】
棒状体11の周面部から突出する突起部13は、ルアー10の重量と全体の重量バランスとを調整する錘として機能すると共にルアー10がラインによって引き寄せられたり又は水の流れよって相対的に水中を動く時にルアー10の周囲を相対的に流れて行く水に対して抵抗となったり渦流を起こさせたりする機能を併せ持っている。このような機能を有する突起部11は、円柱状部材で形成され、その先端部13aはほぼ半球状とされている。
【0015】
この突起部13を棒状体11の周面部に取り付ける場合には、棒状体11における所定の部位から径方向内方へ向かって穴を開け、この穴に接着剤を充填した後に突起部13の基端(先端部13aとは反対側の端部)を差し込んで固着することができる。
【0016】
なお、棒状体11への突起部13の取付け構造は、本発明の要旨ではなく、前述した取付け構造以外にも、棒状体11の周面部から径方向内方へ開けた穴に突起部13の基端を圧入して取付ける構造、棒状体11の周面部から径方向内方へ開けた穴をねじ穴とし、突起部13の基端外周にねじを形成して棒状体11のねじ穴に螺合して取付ける構造など周知の種々の構造を採用することができる。
【0017】
このルアー10を使用する場合には、棒状体11における前端部側の傾斜面12aに形成された貫通穴14にスプリットリングなどを介してラインを繋ぎ、水中に投げ入れる。次いで、ラインを引くと、ルアー10は、突起部13がルアー10の重量と全体の重量バランスとを調整する錘としての機能を有することから、棒状体11は図3に示されるように下側周面部が下方向に向いてほぼ水平となり、ルアー10はこの状態で水中を移動する。
【0018】
その時、ルアー10の前方から後方へ相対的に流れる水が、棒状体11の上方斜めに向いた前方傾斜面12aにぶつかって抵抗となるため、棒状体11には水中に潜ろうとする力が働き、この力と棒状体11がラインにより引き上げられる力とがバランスして水平状態を維持する。この時、棒状体11の周面から突出した突起部13にはルアー10の前方から後方へ相対的に流れる水がぶつかって抵抗となると共にこの突起部13の周囲を回り込むように流れる。
【0019】
このようにルアー10の周囲を前端部側から後端部側へ向かう水の複雑な流れによってルアー10は、突起部13を中心として前端部及び後端部が激しく且つ細かく振れる。この結果、魚が水生生物と見間違えて食い付くことになる。
【0020】
このルアー10では、棒状体11をアルミニウムやプラスチックで形成することができ、また突起部13は棒状体11よりも比重が大きい真鍮等の金属で形成することがよい。また、このルアー10は、大きなサイズの魚に対して使用することを考慮して棒状体11の全長Lが20〜250ミリ、直径が3〜25ミリの大きさで形成することが好ましい。
【0021】
このルアー10では、断面円形の棒状体11を用いたが、本発明はこのような断面形状に限定されるものではなく、断面が三角形や四角形等の多角形であってもよい。
【0022】
【発明の効果】
本発明のルアーによれば、ほぼ一様な太さの棒状体における両端部の各端面を互いに平行な傾斜面とし、この棒状体の全長の二等分中心点から一方の端部側に偏位した部位に突起部を取り付けたことにより、水中で微小な動きを連続して起こさせて対象魚に興味を引かせることができ、その結果このルアーを使用した場合には多くの釣果を期待することができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a lure, and more particularly, to a rod-like lure that has a rod-like body as a main component and is suitable for use in, for example, a management fishing ground by causing minute vibrations in water.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In recent years, an increasing number of people enjoy fishing for rainbow trout, yamame trout, char, etc. at managed fishing grounds. Conventionally, lures corresponding to many kinds of fish including these fishes have been developed, and typically spinners, spoons, plugs and the like are known. These lures are formed with the main elements of shape and color that interest the target fish.
[0003]
For example, when fishing rainbow trout, a spinner with a little red in the blade and torso is used, so with conventional lures, when it is seen underwater it is misunderstood as a small fish etc. It was formed with colors. On the other hand, a spoon is known as a lure that moves like a small fish underwater. This spoon is made to shake in the water by its unique structure and shape, so that the fish will be interested and chased.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Because of this, even if it is small and lightweight, it can continuously cause a small movement in a weak water place such as a management fishing ground, and can attract rainbow trout, yamame trout, char, etc. Even when targeting fish of a large size, it has been desired to provide a lure that can continuously generate minute movements to attract interest.
[0005]
An object of the present invention is to meet such a conventional request, and provides a lure that continuously attracts interest to a target fish by causing a slight movement in water even in a management fishing spot where water is weak. There is.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The lure of the present invention is configured as follows to solve the above-described technical problem. That is, the present invention has a front end portion and a rear end portion, and is formed in a substantially uniform thickness bar-shaped body extending along the horizontal line, and in the vicinity of both end portions, and can be attached to a hook and a line. In a lure equipped with a hole, both end portions are formed with mutually parallel inclined surfaces inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal line, and the rod-shaped body has a central point that bisects the total length of the rod-shaped body on the horizontal line A protrusion that extends in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal line is formed at a portion that is displaced to one of the two end portions.
[0007]
When this lure is cast and submerged in water, the rod-like body becomes almost horizontal with the projection protruding from the peripheral surface of the rod-like body down, and when the line is drawn, both ends of the rod-like body are supported by this projection as a fulcrum. It shakes intensely and finely, which causes the fish to eat mistakenly for aquatic life.
[0008]
The lure of the present invention has the following features in addition to the features described above. That is, the lure of the present invention is characterized in that each inclined surface of the rod-shaped body is formed at an angle of 20 to 70 degrees with respect to the horizontal line. Thus, by changing the inclination angle of each inclined surface of the rod-shaped body, various changes can be made in the movement of the lure in water. Moreover, in the lure of this invention, it is preferable to form a through hole in an inclined surface. Furthermore, in the lure of the present invention, it is preferable that the protrusion is formed of a material having a specific gravity larger than that of the rod-shaped body.
[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the lure of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the illustrated embodiments. 1 to 3 show a lure 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the lure 10, FIG. 2 is a bottom view of the lure 10, and FIG. 3 is a side view partially broken away at both ends of the lure 10 extending horizontally.
[0010]
This lure 10 has a front end portion (left end portion in FIGS. 1 to 3) and a rear end portion, and has a substantially uniform thickness extending along a horizontal line, and a rod-shaped body 11 having a circular cross section. I have. The end surfaces at both ends of the rod-shaped body 11 are inclined surfaces 12a and 12b which are inclined with respect to a center line 11a along the horizontal line through which the rod-shaped body 11 extends and passing through the cross-sectional center point of the rod-shaped body 11. The inclined surfaces 12a and 12b are formed in parallel to each other.
[0011]
The inclination angle θ (see FIG. 3) of the inclined surfaces 12a and 12b is preferably formed at an angle of 20 to 70 degrees with respect to the center line 11a, more preferably about 35 degrees. When both inclined surfaces 12a and 12b of the rod-shaped body 11 are formed at such an inclination angle, the front and rear end portions of the rod-shaped body 11 swing finely in combination with the presence of a projection 13 described later in the movement of the lure 10 in water. It will be. Through holes 14 and 15 are formed at the tip portions of both inclined surfaces 12a and 12b of the rod-shaped body 11, respectively.
[0012]
In the illustrated example, a line is connected to the through hole 14 formed in the inclined surface 12a on the front end side through a split ring (none of which is shown). A hook 16 is attached to the through hole 15 on the rear end side via a split ring 17 as shown. However, the lure 10 may be used with a hook 16 attached to the through hole 14 and a line attached to the through hole 15.
[0013]
As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, it is the lower side when it is placed almost horizontally so that the inclined surface 12a on the front end side faces obliquely upward and the inclined surface 12b on the rear end side faces obliquely downward. A central point that bisects the total length L of the rod-shaped body 11 is formed on the peripheral surface portion (in FIG. 3, a bisector that passes through the bisector center point and is orthogonal to the center line 11a of the rod-shaped body 11 is denoted by reference numeral 18. A protrusion 13 is formed to project in the vertical direction, that is, radially outward of the rod-like body 11 at a portion displaced to the front end side.
[0014]
The protruding portion 13 protruding from the peripheral surface portion of the rod-shaped body 11 functions as a weight for adjusting the weight of the lure 10 and the overall weight balance, and the luer 10 is attracted by a line or relatively underwater by the flow of water. It also has a function of resisting water and causing vortex flow when the water moves relatively around the lure 10. The protruding portion 11 having such a function is formed of a columnar member, and the tip end portion 13a is substantially hemispherical.
[0015]
When the protrusion 13 is attached to the peripheral surface portion of the rod-shaped body 11, a hole is formed in a radially inward direction from a predetermined portion of the rod-shaped body 11, and after filling the hole with an adhesive, the base of the protrusion 13 is formed. The end (the end opposite to the tip 13a) can be inserted and fixed.
[0016]
In addition, the attachment structure of the projection part 13 to the rod-shaped body 11 is not the gist of the present invention, and other than the above-described attachment structure, the projection part 13 is formed in a hole opened radially inward from the peripheral surface portion of the rod-shaped body 11. A structure in which the proximal end is press-fitted and a hole drilled radially inward from the peripheral surface portion of the rod-shaped body 11 is used as a screw hole, and a screw is formed on the outer periphery of the proximal end of the projecting portion 13 so Various well-known structures such as a structure to be attached together can be adopted.
[0017]
When this lure 10 is used, a line is connected to a through hole 14 formed in the inclined surface 12a on the front end side of the rod-like body 11 via a split ring and thrown into the water. Next, when the line is drawn, the lure 10 has a function as a weight in which the protrusion 13 adjusts the weight of the lure 10 and the overall weight balance. The peripheral surface portion is directed downward and becomes almost horizontal, and the lure 10 moves underwater in this state.
[0018]
At that time, the water relatively flowing from the front to the rear of the lure 10 hits the front inclined surface 12a facing obliquely upward of the rod-like body 11 and becomes a resistance, so that the rod-like body 11 has a force to dive in the water. This force and the force with which the rod-like body 11 is pulled up by the line balances to maintain a horizontal state. At this time, the protrusion 13 protruding from the peripheral surface of the rod-shaped body 11 is caused to collide with the water flowing relatively from the front to the rear of the luer 10 and flow around the periphery of the protrusion 13.
[0019]
Thus, the lure 10 vibrates vigorously and finely around the protrusion 13 with the complicated flow of water from the front end side toward the rear end side around the lure 10. As a result, fish mistaken for aquatic life and eat.
[0020]
In this lure 10, the rod-shaped body 11 can be formed of aluminum or plastic, and the protrusion 13 is preferably formed of a metal such as brass having a specific gravity greater than that of the rod-shaped body 11. Further, the lure 10 is preferably formed so that the total length L of the rod-shaped body 11 is 20 to 250 mm and the diameter is 3 to 25 mm in consideration of use with large fish.
[0021]
In this lure 10, the rod-shaped body 11 having a circular cross section is used, but the present invention is not limited to such a cross sectional shape, and the cross section may be a polygon such as a triangle or a quadrangle.
[0022]
【The invention's effect】
According to the lure of the present invention, the end faces of both ends of the rod-shaped body having a substantially uniform thickness are inclined parallel to each other, and the entire length of the rod-shaped body is deviated from the bisection center point to one end side. By attaching the protrusion to the position where it is positioned, it is possible to continuously cause minute movement in water and attract interest to the target fish, and as a result, many lures are expected when using this lure can do.
