Abstract
Abstract A fishing lure having a spinner on the front end and a spinner on the rear end with each spinner formed so it will rotate in the same direction as the other spinner and means for varying the frictional hold on the spinners to vary the spin of each spinner so as to vary the rocking motion of the spinner in the water in order to flash the light-reflecting eyes and to produce a sound by causing the balls to move within the body of the lure and the balls to hit one another.
