A surface type fishing lure having a pair of nested, noise-producing spinners. The lure is a frame-like structure of stiff bendable wire formed into integral first and second arms. A fish hook is rigidly affixed to the rearward end of the first arm constituting an extension thereof. A head element is located at the juncture of the first arm and the hook. A hook-concealing skirt may be affixed to the head element. The forward end of the first arm terminates in a loop to which a fishing line can be secured. The loop, in turn, terminates in the second arm having first and second portions. The first portion of the second arm extends from the loop in a lateral direction with respect to the first arm. The first portion of the second arm terminates in the second portion extending generally in the same direction as the first arm. The above noted pair of spinners is rotatively mounted in nested condition on the second portion of the second arm. The spinners are similarly configured, each having a body portion and two blades. The blade configurations and their angular relationships to their respective body portions cause them to rotate in the same direction at different speeds, striking each other to produce a fish attracting sound.
