Abstract
An improved fishing lure employing a wire frame having first and second arms that extend in divergent directions with respect to each other. A fish attracting element and a hook are secured to one arm, and a spinner is attached to the other arm. The wire frame is formed of a nickel titanium alloy which provides flexibility and shape memory that are substantially greater than that provided by conventional stainless steel wire whereby when the lure is pulled through water, it has improved fish attracting action.
