Abstract
A fishing lure comprising a head, a mechanism for attaching the head to a fishing line, a substantially planar hook having a shank projecting rearwardly from the head and a concave butt portion at the rearward end of the shank terminating in a barb, and a first substantially flat camming surface. The head includes a member constituting a weight. The camming surface forms an exterior surface on the member and lies in a first plane inclined with respect to the plane of the hook. The camming surface is engageable with the closed lips of a fish as the lure moves forwardly in the mouth of the fish to rotate the lure toward a set position wherein the plane of the hook is substantially perpendicular to the floor and roof of the mouth of the fish thereby to facilitate embedment of the hook in the floor or roof of the mouth.
