Abstract
An improved fishing lure is formed by a head/hook member having integral projections which interengage in preformed bores of a profiled body member of resilient material so as to maintain the unitary integrity of the assembly. The head/hook member is preferably a unitary member of relatively dense material, such as metal, so as to provide the necessary ballast for the lure. The body member is preferably formed of a resilient material, such as plastics or rubber like material, and as any geometric configuration, including the natural form of normal fish prey and may be colored in accordance with any coloration scheme. The body member has preformed bores which receive portions of the head/hook member therein without damage to the body member providing ease of assembly and replaceability not heretofore possible.
