Patent ID: 8402686

Claim:
A light emitting fishing teaser comprising: a. a translucent lure head comprising: (i) an exposed cylindrical lure cavity passing longitudinally through the translucent lure head and an outside surface on the translucent lure head; wherein the exposed cylindrical lure cavity accommodates water when the light emitting fishing teaser is submerged in water; (ii) a charging terminal located within the exposed cylindrical lure cavity; (iii) an encapsulated charging circuit in communication with the charging terminal; (iv) an enable terminal located within the exposed cylindrical lure cavity and electrically isolated from the charging terminal; (v) a ground terminal located within the exposed cylindrical lure cavity and electrically isolated from the charging terminal and from the enable terminal, wherein the ground terminal is in communication with the encapsulated charging circuit; (vi) an energy source encapsulated by the translucent lure head; (vii) a control circuit board encapsulated by the translucent lure head; (viii) a light emitting circuit board encapsulated by the translucent lure head; and (ix) a convex lens formed by the outside surface of the translucent lure head; b. a leader secured to a fishing line and extending through the charging terminal, the enable terminal, and the ground terminal, in the exposed cylindrical lure cavity and connecting to a fishing lure; and c. a lure skirt attached to the translucent lure head; wherein only when the exposed cylindrical lure cavity accommodates water is an electrical circuit between the charging terminal, the enable terminal, and the ground terminal completed by water in the exposed cylindrical lure cavity.
