Abstract:
1. An electronic fishing lure, comprising: a casing configured to be waterproof; an eyelet attached to at least one end of said casing; a base built into said casing, said base configured to be removable; a compartment located within said casing at said base, said compartment configured to house a battery; said battery configured to be connected to a circuit such that said battery is in communication with a motor and at least two electrodes; said at least two electrodes protrude outward from said casing such that sensors contained within said at least two electrodes can determine when said at least two electrodes are submerged underwater; said at least two electrodes configured to close said circuit upon determination of being submerged underwater; said at least two electrodes configured to emit an electron flow into the water in the form of electrical impulse energy upon closing of said circuit when supplied with power from said battery that is in communication with a first resistor and a first capacitor; said motor configured to rotate after the electrical impulse energy emitted by said at least two electrodes reaches its peak amperage, said motor configured to create acoustic energy through vibrations of a rotation of said motor; wherein said eyelet configured such that fishing line can be placed therethrough; wherein said circuit is configured to remain closed via said at least two electrodes for the duration of water submersion; wherein said at least two electrodes when supplied with power from said battery that is in communication with said first resistor and said first capacitor are configured to emit the electrical impulse energy in a waveform that begins with an initial peak emission of the electrical impulse energy followed by a drastic reduction in the electrical impulse energy; wherein said at least two electrodes are configured to emit the initial peak emission at a range of between 10 microseconds and 23 microseconds; wherein said battery is in communication with said first resistor and said first capacitor; wherein said circuit is configured such that forward action drives a first transistor to drive and cause said motor to rotate; wherein said motor is configured when supplied with power from said battery that is in communication with a second resistor to rotate at a lower level of speed than the initial peak emission of said at least two electrodes, with said motor configured to then gradually increase its rotational speed until reaching peak speed; wherein said motor is configured to taper off its rotational speed to a gradual level after reaching peak speed when supplied with power from said battery that is in communication with said second resistor; wherein said motor is configured to a maximum rotational speed of between 4 KHz and 5 KHz; wherein a shaft of said motor is loaded with a weight between 550 mg and 650 mg; wherein said circuit is configured to employ a second transistor in forward bias through said battery and said second resistor; wherein a strap is affixed to said motor and said circuit, said circuit in communication with said casing; and wherein said strap is configured to vibrate when said motor is rotating, having the effect of causing said casing to vibrate.
