Description

  The present invention relates to a lure, and more particularly to a lure of the type having a propeller that rotates in response to running water in water.

  For fishing, a lure (pseudo bait) made of a synthetic resin, metal or the like whose outer shape resembles a fish is used. As such lures, various types of lures have been developed and provided to enhance the interest of fish. For example, there is a type of lure in which a rotatable propeller is provided at the tail side end of a lure body whose outer shape is similar to a fish. When lures are migrated in water, the propellers rotate and generate water currents, water sounds, etc., attracting fish and attracting fish.

  Thus, in the lure with a propeller, since the propeller has an important significance, various ideas have been applied to the propeller. For example, a lure with a propeller is irregularly rotated with the shape, size, angle, thickness, material, etc. of each blade being different among the blades of the propeller. 1).

  However, one of the problems with lures with propellers is that when casting a lure, the propeller increases the air resistance, making it impossible to throw the lure well at the target point. In fishing using a lure, it is important to throw a lure at a specific point, and there is a strong demand for improvement of this point.

Furthermore, another problem with the lure with a propeller is that the propeller is deformed when it hits an obstacle in the water. At points where there are many decayed trees, stones, rocks, etc., if a lure with a propeller is run underwater, the propeller hits an obstacle and deforms, or the propeller gets caught and the lure cannot be recovered.

  The present invention provides a new lure that is easy to throw at a target point and is not easily broken in view of the problems of the lure with a propeller.

  The lure of the present invention has a lure body that is formed to resemble a fish in outer shape, has a fishing line connecting portion at the head side end portion, and has a slit formed in the vertical direction so as to open from the tail end portion to the back side. A shaft that penetrates the slit of the lure body in the width direction, a swinging rod that is swingably connected around the shaft, and a propeller that is rotatably connected to the end of the swinging rod. It has.

  This lure is used by connecting a fishing line to a fishing line connecting part on the head side. When thrown into the water, this lure flies with its tail side in the direction of travel. During the flight, the propeller and the swinging rod that have received the air resistance swing toward the back side to suppress the generation of air resistance as much as possible. After being thrown into the water, if the lure is moved toward the head, for example, by winding up a fishing line, the propeller and the swinging rod are swung toward the tail side under the water flow. In this state, the propeller receives the water current and rotates to attract the interest of the fish.

  Further, even when an obstacle such as a rock hits the propeller in water, the position of the propeller and the swinging rod is displaced around the axis, thereby preventing the propeller from being broken or caught on the obstacle.

  In addition, it is preferable that the swinging rod is inclined to the head side from the vertical direction in a state where the swinging rod is swung most toward the back side of the lure body about the axis. By setting the propeller to tilt toward the head, the air resistance during flight can be greatly reduced.

  The lure according to the present invention is easy to throw at the target point, and the propeller is not easily broken.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a lure employing one embodiment of the present invention is shown. The lure has a luer body 1 whose outer shape is similar to a small fish, a lip 2 projecting obliquely downward from the head side end of the lure body 1, and swingable to the tail side of the lure body 1. It has a rocking bar 3 to be connected and a propeller 4 rotatably connected to the tip of the rocking bar 3.

  The lure body 1 is formed of a synthetic resin or the like that is integrated by bonding hollow left and right half members as shown in FIG. The shape is imitating a fish as described above, and scale patterns, eyes, corals, etc. are drawn on the outer peripheral surface. The eye 5 is arranged on the head side of the lure body 1 and the eye 6 is also arranged on the abdomen in a state of being embedded in a part of the bonding surface of the half member. The eye 5 is a portion for connecting the fishing line and is a fishing line connecting portion. A fishhook 8 is connected to the eye 6 via a split ring 7. Furthermore, a weight 11 is accommodated in a part of the bonding surface near the abdomen of the lure body 1 as necessary. Further, as shown in detail in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, a part of the tail side of the bonding surface of the half member of the luer body 1 is notched and opens from the tail end of the lure body 1 to the back side. Thus, a slit is formed in the vertical direction. The shaft 12 passes through the slit in the left-right width direction. The slit is formed by tilting the horizontal inner wall toward the tail and the vertical inner wall toward the head from the vertical direction (back side), and the angle between the inner walls is an obtuse angle.

  The lip 2 is a thin plate-like part and is formed integrally with the luer body 1. The lure body 1 protrudes obliquely downward from the head side, receives water in the water, and tilts the head side of the lure body 1 toward the bottom of the water. If necessary, the lip 2 may be subjected to processing such as embedding a weight.

  The swing bar 3 is made of an alloy such as stainless steel or steel, or a hard synthetic resin. One end is bent in a ring shape, and the shaft 12 passes through the ring-shaped portion. The length of the swing bar 13 in the longitudinal direction is such that the other end sufficiently protrudes from the slit. A propeller 4 is rotatably connected to the other end of the swing bar 3. Then, the swinging bar 3 swings about the shaft 12 in a range from the horizontal inner wall of the slit to the vertical inner wall. In this embodiment, the shaft 12 is positioned sufficiently displaced from the vertical inner wall of the slit to the tail side, and the vertical inner wall of the slit is inclined to the head side from the vertical direction. Therefore, the propeller 4 is inclined to the head side from the vertical direction in a state where the swinging rod 3 hits the inner wall of the slit.

  The propeller 4 is made of a metal such as stainless steel or steel, or a hard synthetic resin, and includes a shaft hole portion and a pair of blades extending from the shaft hole portion in the circumferential direction. The swinging rod 3 passes through the shaft hole portion. The pair of blades are arranged 180 degrees displaced in the circumferential direction.

  It is sufficient that the propeller 4 is pivotally connected to the swing bar 3 by an arbitrary method. For example, in this lure, the propeller 4 is rotatably connected to the swing bar 3 by a structure as shown in FIG. That is, a flange 3a is formed on the other end side of the swing bar 3, and a nut portion is formed inside the other end side. The swing rod 3 is inserted into the shaft hole of the propeller 4 and is positioned by the flange 3a. At this time, the cup washer 20 is interposed between the flange 3 a and the propeller 4. The cup washer 20 between the flange 3a and the propeller 4 has a curved surface directed to the propeller 4 side. Then, the heaton 21 is inserted into the nut portion described above, and the propeller 4 is stopped. Another cup washer 20 is also interposed between the heaton 21 and the propeller 4. The cup washer 20 between the heaton 21 and the propeller 4 also has a curved surface directed to the propeller 4 side. As shown in FIG. 1, a fishhook 10 can also be connected to the heaton 20 via a split ring 9.

  The shape of the propeller 4 and the number of blades can be arbitrarily set. Further, two propellers 4 may be arranged adjacent to each other. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, two propellers 4 are arranged side by side on the swing rod 3. At this time, the inclination of the blades of the propeller 4 may be changed so that the rotation directions of the propeller 4 and the rotation of the propeller 4 are opposite to each other.

  This lure is used by connecting a fishing line to the eye 5 of the lure body 1. Therefore, when thrown into the water, the lure flies with the tail side of the lure body 1 in the traveling direction. During the flight, the propeller 4 and the swinging rod 3 that have received the air resistance swing in the slit toward the back side to suppress the generation of air resistance as much as possible. After being thrown into the water, the angler moves the lure toward the head by winding up the fishing line. In this state, the propeller 4 and the swing bar 3 swing in the slit toward the tail side in response to the water flow. Then, the propeller 4 rotates in response to the water flow and attracts the fish with interest. Even if an obstacle such as a rock hits the propeller 4 in water, the position of the propeller 4 and the swing bar 3 is displaced about the shaft 12. Therefore, it is difficult for the propeller 4 to be broken and the propeller 4 to be caught on an obstacle.
