Patent ID: 7743550

Claim:
A system for fishing using one of a plurality of rates of fall, the plurality of rates of fall comprising a first rate of fall and a second rate of fall, each of the rates of fall providing a different depth for delay between a cast and retrieval, the system comprising: a first swim bait fishing lure comprising: an elongated body having a head and a rear along a longitudinal axis, a reduced tail portion from the body tapering laterally to the reduced tail portion toward the rear, the reduced tail portion being flexible in the lateral direction; a first weighted insert comprising a first portion proximate the head of the elongated body and a second portion, the first portion configured to be less dense than the second portion, the weighted insert embedded within the elongated body; a first rate of fall characterized by the first weighted insert, the first rate of fall being one of the plurality of rates of fall; an enlarged tail flaring from the reduced tail portion, the enlarged tail having a tapered top and a tapered bottom, the tapered top being formed from two intersecting faces, the tapered bottom being formed from two intersecting faces, the rear forms a distal surface intersecting the tapered top and the tapered bottom; a contour extending from the reduced tail portion on each of the faces terminating in an edge proximate the rear to cause a vortex within a vicinity of each of the faces from a flowing fluid and to provide an even drag, keeping the enlarged tail in a stable side to side movement creating a right and left vortex; and a lateral indentation configured on the distal surface at the intersection from the tapered top and the tapered bottom; and a second swim bait fishing lure comprising: a second weighted insert; a second rate of fall characterized by the second weighted insert, the second rate of fall being one of the plurality of rates of fall.
