Benefits of technology

[0019] Applicants have discovered anew material for use in making or producing new flies, lures or other fishing hook structures. This material has a number of advantages over the prior art material and adhesives. Applicants' material consists of an acrylic resin that has a catalyst which will react to visible light (preferably 250-500 nanometers), thus controllably curing the resin when the resin is exposed to visible light. The acrylic resin is available in liquid, h

Problems solved by technology

It is exposed to light when the fly tier wishes to use it, but while it is light sensitive, there is typically sufficient time to shape a bod

Embodiment Construction

[0038]FIG. 1 illustrates a fly constructed partially with applications of LCAR. The body of this fly is bonded to the hook with a layer of LCAR. There is an application of black nylon floss around the LCAR body to give a striped appearance and the floss may also be coated with a thin layer of LCAR which may be textured. There are four fiber wings placed on the fly toward the front and bonded in place with LCAR. Then the head and eyes are constructed of LCAR in front of hackle neck. This LCAR also acts as head cement to stabilize the tying thread or floss.

[0039]FIG. 2 illustrates a fly (streamer) formed by using synthetic white, yellow and red fibers tied in the traditional method. Here, the LCAR is used to finish the head and hold the fibers down and in a more natural position while in the water. This LCAR also allows the person to paint or draw on the head and then add a clear coating of LCAR to seal and protect this art work.

[0040] More specifically, FIG. 1 provides a perspectiv...

Abstract

Applicants disclose a fishing fly or lure made at least in part from light cured acrylic resin (LCAR). The LCAR may be used to attach fiber to a fish hook or to mimic the body of an insect or other desirable shape.

Description

[0001] This is a utility application claims priority from and incorporates by reference U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 06 / 489,543 filed Jul. 23, 2003.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] A fly or lure for fishing, the fly or lure at least partially constructed from light curable acrylic resin (LCAR) and a method of making the same. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] Prior art flies / lures (fishing hook structures) are typically made with a hook, to which fibers or various materials are attached by means of thread or glue. The completed structure is intended to mimic a food source for fish and, when used by a skilled fly fisherman when attached to the end of a fishing line can often be successful in catching fish. [0004] Hooks, threads, fibers and other materials come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, dimensions and other characteristics and are chosen to be combined according to the desired result—a fishing hook structure attractive to a fish. For example, if one intends to tie a...
