Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a lure. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the related art, a lure for fishing is known which has a main body portion (body portion) and a tail portion, wherein the tail portion is elastically deformable and has an engaged portion which is engaged with the main body portion. In such a lure, the tail portion of the lure which is composed of a soft material such as rubber or elastomer is engaged with the main body portion of the lure which is composed of a hard material such as ABS, and the engagement of the tail portion with the main body portion is sometimes unintentionally released due to elastic deformation of the soft material of the tail portion.

[0003] Therefore, for example as shown in Patent Document 1, a lure in which the tail portion is not easily separated from the main body portion is disclosed which employs a method of fixing the tail portion by inserting a pin provided in a pin hole of the main body portion after engaging the hard main body portion and the soft tail portion.

[0006] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-22306 SUMMARY

[0007] However, in the lure like that of Patent Document 1, an operation of inserting the pin into the two holes while aligning the pin with the pin hole provided in the main body portion and the hole for the pin provided in the tail portion is required, and thus operability related to assembly of the lure is reduced.

[0008] In addition, in the lure of the related art, the pin and the main body portion are fixed by friction, and thus there is a concern that the pin is detached due to vibration or the like during use of the lure, and there is room for improvement in this regard.

[0009] The present application is achieved in consideration of such circumstances, and aims to provide a lure which can improve operability related to assembly and can prevent the tail portion from being detached from the main body portion.

[0010] (1) A lure according to the present application has a main body portion and a tail portion which is elastically deformable and has an engaged portion engaged with the main body portion, characterized in that the main body portion has a lure body main body, an engaging portion having an opening portion for inserting the engaged portion to engage the engaged portion, and a restriction member, a part of which is supported to the lure body main body and another part of which protrudes into the engaging portion, the engaged portion has a locking hole for the another part of the restriction member to insert, and the engaged portion is engaged with the engaging portion in a state where the another part of the restriction member is inserted into the locking hole.

[0011] According to the artificial bait related to the present application, the engaged portion of the tail portion is inserted into the engaging portion of the main body portion, and the engaged portion is engaged with the engaging portion. When the engaged portion is engaged with the engaging portion, the restricting member fixed to the main body of the artificial bait body is inserted into the locking hole while the engaged portion is elastically deformed. Further, the tail portion attached to the main body portion is held in a state where it cannot be separated from the main body portion. That is, a part of the restricting member is supported by the main body of the artificial bait body, and thus, even if the engaged portion of the tail portion is elastically deformed when the artificial bait is used, the restricting member does not separate, and the engagement of the engaged portion with the engaging portion can be prevented from being released, and the tail portion can be prevented from being separated from the main body portion.

[0012] Further, in the present application, the restricting member is supported by the main body of the artificial bait body in advance, and thus, when the tail portion is attached to the main body portion, only the operation of inserting the engaged portion of the tail portion into the engaging portion of the main body portion to engage the engaged portion with the engaging portion is performed, and the operation of inserting the pin and the operation of positioning the hole of the pin, which are performed in the related art, are not required, and the assembly operability can be improved.

[0013] (2) It can also be characterized in that the restricting member is an elongated pin.

[0014] In this case, by using the elongated pin, a configuration in which the other part of the pin is easily inserted into the locking hole and the pin inserted into the locking hole is not easily separated is obtained.

[0015] (3) Preferably, the pin has a protruding portion protruding in a direction intersecting the pin axis direction, and the protruding portion is embedded in the main body of the artificial bait body.

[0016] In this case, the protruding portion of the pin is supported in a state where it is embedded in the main body of the artificial bait body, and thus, even if the engaged portion of the tail portion is elastically deformed when the artificial bait is used, the pin can be more reliably prevented from separating.

[0017] (4) It can also be characterized in that the pin is provided in an L shape in which the protruding portion extends from one end of a pin shaft portion extending in the pin axis direction in a direction orthogonal thereto (i.e., a direction orthogonal to the pin shaft portion).

[0018] In this case, the protruding portion extending in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the pin separates is embedded in the main body of the artificial bait body, and thus, the pin is more firmly fixed to the main body of the artificial bait body.

[0019] (5) It can also be characterized in that the pin has a groove portion recessed in a direction intersecting the pin axis direction, and the main body of the artificial bait body is embedded in the groove portion.

[0020] In this case, the pin is fixed in a state where the pin is embedded in the groove portion of the lure body main body, so even if the engaged portion of the tail portion is elastically deformed when the lure is used, the pin can be more reliably prevented from coming off.

[0021] (6) It can also be characterized in that the pin tip portion on the side opposite to the engaged portion side of the pin is gradually inclined or curved from the head portion to the tail portion side in the front-rear direction as it approaches the engaged portion, and the angle formed by the tangent line of the pin tip portion and the straight line orthogonal to the front-rear direction, as viewed from the side, is within the range of 0° to 90°.

[0022] In this case, when the engaged portion of the tail portion is inserted from the opening portion, the pin tip portion is directed in the opposite direction to the insertion direction of the engaged portion, so the pin is inserted into the locking hole during the process of inserting the engaged portion into the engaged portion. At this time, the engaged portion is inserted into the engaged portion in a state where it is elastically deformed, so the pin can be locked by being caught in the locking hole. Thus, even if the tail portion is elastically deformed when the lure is used, the engaged portion is not easily detached from the pin.

[0023] In addition, it is not necessary to align the positions of the pin and the locking hole of the engaged portion with high precision, and it is easy to process during manufacturing. In addition, it is possible to suppress the pin from being bent in the insertion direction along with the insertion of the engaged portion, and it is possible to insert the pin tip portion into the locking hole of the engaged portion.

[0024] (7) It can also be characterized in that the main body portion is composed of a first main body and a second main body, and the first main body and the second main body are formed by dividing the main body portion into two parts with a plane in the front-rear direction connecting the head portion and the tail portion as a cutting plane.

[0025] In this case, by sandwiching the engaged portion of the tail portion with the first main body and the second main body divided by the division, it is possible to reliably cause the engaged portion to engage with the engaged portion, and it is possible to easily perform the assembly work of mounting the tail portion to the main body portion.

[0026] (8) It can also be characterized in that the restriction member is sandwiched and fixed between the first main body and the second main body.

[0027] In this case, it is possible to fix the restriction member to the lure body main body by the easy work of sandwiching the restriction member between the first main body and the second main body.

[0028] (9) It can also be characterized in that the engaged portion is formed to be larger than the cross-sectional shape of the opening portion.

[0029] In this case, it is possible to easily insert the engaged portion from the opening portion into the engaged portion while elastically deforming the engaged portion.

[0030] (10) Also, the tip end portion of the other portion of the restriction member can be positioned outside the body of the artificial bait.

[0031] In this case, since the restriction member is exposed at the tip end of the restriction member protruding outside the body of the artificial bait, the restriction member can be visually confirmed from the outside of the artificial bait. Thus, the state of the restriction member, such as detachment of the restriction member, can be easily confirmed.

[0032] [Effects of Invention]

[0033] According to the artificial bait of the present application, operability in assembly can be improved, and detachment of the tail from the body can be prevented. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

Detailed Implementation

[0046] Hereinafter, embodiments of the lure according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Furthermore, in each drawing, the scale of each component may be appropriately altered as needed to ensure that each component is a visually verifiable size.

[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the lure 1 in this embodiment is an example of a joint-type lure that simulates the shape of a small fish. It is used for fishing and has a main body 10 made of hard plastic.

[0048] The lure 1 has the aforementioned main body 10 and tail 20, the tail 20 having a protrusion 22 that engages with the main body 10, for example made of soft plastic and capable of elastic deformation.

[0049] Here, in lure 1, the direction connecting the head and tail in a straight line is defined as the front-back direction, the side of the head is defined as the front or front side, and the side of the tail is defined as the rear or rear side. Additionally, viewed from above, the lateral direction orthogonal to the front-back direction is defined as the left-right direction. Below, the up-down direction of lure 1 when in a swimming posture will be explained as the up-down direction.

[0050] The main body 10 is provided with a first lure body 11, a second lure body 12, and a third lure body 13 in sequence from front to back.

[0051] The first lure body 11 is shaped to resemble the approximate front half of a fish. A fishing line hole 14 is provided at the front part 11a of the first lure body 11. A front hook hole 16A for connecting the front hook 15A is provided at the lower part 11c of the first lure body 11. The first lure body 11 is connected to the second lure body 12 by a pair of upper and lower first connecting parts 31, 31, which can rotate in the left and right direction.

[0052] The first connection member 31 is formed in a flat plate shape elongated in one direction, is arranged with the length direction oriented in the front-rear direction and the planar direction oriented in a direction orthogonal to the up-down direction. The pair of first connection members 31, 31 are arranged spaced apart in the up-down direction. Through-holes (not shown) are provided in the thickness direction on both sides of the length direction of the first connection member 31.

[0053] A first rotation shaft 32 is provided at the rear end portion 1 lb of the first lure body 11. The first rotation shaft 32 is inserted through the through-hole on the front side of the first connection member 31. A second rotation shaft 33 is provided at the front end portion 12a of the second lure body 12. The second rotation shaft 33 is inserted through the through-hole on the rear side of the first connection member 31. The rotation shafts 32, 33 respectively extend in the up-down direction on the side of the rear end portion 1 lb of the first lure body 11 and on the side of the front end portion 12a of the second lure body 12. That is, the first connection member 31 is arranged so as to be rotatable about the first rotation shaft 32 and so as to be rotatable about the second rotation shaft 33.

[0054] The second lure body 12 and the third lure body 13 are formed in shapes simulating the rear half of a fish. The front end portion 12a of the second lure body 12 is connected to the rear end portion 1 lb of the first lure body 11 by the pair of first connection members 31, 31. A rear hook hole 16B for connecting a rear hook 15B is provided at the lower portion 12c of the second lure body 12. The second lure body 12 is connected to the third lure body 13 in a manner rotatable in the left-right direction by a second connection member 34 (see Figure 2 ).

[0055] As shown in Figure 3 , the third lure body 13 is provided at the rear end portion 12b of the second lure body 12 in a manner rotatable in the left-right direction by the second connection member 34. The lure body main body 130 of the third lure body 13 is composed of a first main body 130A and a second main body 130B, which are formed by dividing the lure body main body 130 into two parts with a plane including the front-rear direction and the up-down direction as a cutting plane. The first main body 130A and the second main body 130B are provided in a detachable manner. In Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the second main body 130B is detached, and only the first main body 130A is shown.

[0056] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the tail portion 20 is formed as a whole in one piece from a soft material such as rubber or silicone. The tail portion 20 has a tail portion main body 21 tapering from the front toward the rear, and a protruding portion 22 protruding forward from the front end portion 21a of the tail portion main body 21.

[0057] The protrusion 22 has a base portion 23 extending forward from the front end portion 21a of the tail body 21 on the tail body 21 side, and an engaged portion 24 on the front side of the base portion 23. The engaged portion 24 is shaped to be larger to the left and right than the base portion 23, and engages with an engaged portion 41 of the third dummy bait 13 described later. The engaged portion 24 has a locking hole 24a into which a pin shaft portion 40B (another portion) of a pin 40 described later is inserted. The locking hole 24a penetrates the engaged portion 24 in the thickness direction (up and down direction). In a state in which the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is inserted into the locking hole 24a, the tail portion 20 is mounted to the third dummy bait 13. The tail portion 20 mounted to the third dummy bait 13 rotates around the axis of the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 extending substantially in the up and down direction. That is, the tail portion 20 can swing left and right with respect to the rear end portion 13b of the third dummy bait 13.

[0058] The third dummy bait 13 has a dummy bait body 130, an engaged portion 41 for engaging the engaged portion 24 of the protrusion 22, and a pin 40 (limiting member) having a fixed shaft portion 40A (protrusion portion) supported to the dummy bait body 130 and a pin shaft portion 40B (another portion) extending downward from the rear end of the fixed shaft portion 40A protruding into the engaged portion 41.

[0059] A third rotation axis 35 extending in the up and down direction is provided in the front end portion 13a of the third dummy bait 13 and is inserted into a through hole (not shown) on the rear side of the second connecting member 34. That is, the second connecting member 34 is provided so as to be rotatable around the third rotation axis 35, and accordingly the tail portion 20 can swing left and right with respect to the third dummy bait 13.

[0060] The engaged portion 41 is a hollow portion formed in the substantially central portion in the front and rear direction of the third dummy bait 13, and is for engaging the engaged portion 24 of the protrusion 22 of the tail portion 20 (see (a) of Figure 5 As described in (a) of Figure 5 As described in (a) of

[0061] The dummy bait body 130 has an opening portion 42 communicating with the engaged portion 41 from below, a base portion engaging hole 43 for engaging the base portion 23 of the protrusion 22, and a pin support hole 44 for supporting the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40.

[0062] The opening portion 42 becomes an entry portion in which the engaged portion 24 is pressed into the engaging portion 41 while the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is inserted into the locking hole 24a of the engaged portion 24 when the tail portion 20 is mounted to the third lure body 13. The length of the opening portion 42 in the front-rear direction is set so that at least the upper end portion 42a on the engaging portion 41 side is smaller than the length of the engaged portion 24 in the front-rear direction.

[0063] The base engaging hole 43 extends from the engaging portion 41 toward the rear and communicates with the rear end portion 13b of the third lure body 13. The base engaging hole 43 has substantially the same cross-sectional shape as the base portion 23 of the tail portion 20 and engages the base portion 23 in a state in which the tail portion 20 is mounted to the third lure body 13.

[0064] As shown in Figure 3 the lower portion of the base engaging hole 43 in the lure body main portion 130 is formed with a slit 45, and the opening size of the slit 45 in the left-right direction gradually increases as it approaches the lower surface 130a of the lure body main portion 130 from the base engaging hole 43. That is, the opening size of the upper end opening 45a of the slit 45 in the left-right direction is set to be smaller than the width dimension of the base portion 23 in the left-right direction. By pressing the base portion 23 of the protruding portion 22 through the slit 45 while elastically deforming the base portion 23 of the protruding portion 22, the protruding portion 22 is engaged with the base engaging hole 43 in such a manner that the base portion 23 does not come off the base engaging hole 43.

[0065] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4 the pin support hole 44 extends from the upper end of the engaging portion 41 toward the obliquely front upper side, and the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 is disposed in the pin support hole 44. The inner diameter of the pin support hole 44 is formed to be substantially the same as the outer diameter of the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40.

[0066] The pin 40 is bent at a substantially right angle in an elongated shape and has a fixed shaft portion 40A that constitutes a portion of the bent pin 40 and is disposed and held in the pin support hole 44, and a pin shaft portion 40B that constitutes the other portion and extends along the engaging portion 41 and the opening portion 42. The fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 is held between the first body 130A and the second body 130B by frictional resistance. That is, the pin 40 is provided in a cantilevered state, the fixed shaft portion 40A that is a portion of the pin 40 is held to the lure body main portion 130, and the pin shaft portion 40B that is the other portion thereof is movable in the engaging portion 41 and the opening portion 42.

[0067] When the tail portion 20 is not mounted to the third lure body 13 and no force in the stretching direction acts on the tail portion 20, the pin 40 is in a state in which it does not bite into the engaged portion 24. On the other hand, when the engaged portion 24 of the tail portion 20 is engaged with the engaging portion 41, the pin 40 is in a state in which it bites into the engaged portion 24 (seeFigure 5 (b) in the middle.

[0068] Furthermore, the portion of the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 that protrudes into the engaging portion 41 extends to a position outside the lower surface 130a of the simulated bait body 130. That is, the pin tip portion 40a of the pin shaft portion 40B is located below the opening end 42b of the opening portion 42.

[0069] The pin shaft portion 40B of pin 40 gradually tilts from front to rear as it moves from the pin tip portion 40a toward the engaging portion 41. The pin tilt angle θ at this time is the tangent line K1 passing through the pin tip portion 40a when viewed from the side. Figure 2 The angle θ between the double-dotted line shown and the straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-back direction is set to a range from 0° to 90°. More preferably, the pin tilt angle θ is in the range of 15° to 90°. In this embodiment, the pin tilt angle θ is 17.5°.

[0070] Here, the method of attaching the tail 20 to the third lure body 13 of the main body 10 in the above-mentioned lure 1 will be described.

[0071] First, such as Figure 5 As shown in (a), the side that holds the main body 130 of the bait (here) Figure 1 The second body 130B is shown in the removed state. Then, in the first body 130A, the fixing shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 is hooked onto the pin support hole 44 of the third lure body 13 to lock it in place. After that, the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is hooked onto the locking hole 24a of the engaging portion 24 provided in the protrusion 22 of the tail portion 20. Here, the state in which the pin 40 is hooked onto the pin support hole 44 is an insertion state.

[0072] After that, such as Figure 5 As shown in (b), the tail 20 is inserted into the opening 42 while stretching the engaged portion 24 (or the entire tail 20) indicated by the double-dotted line by hand to elastically deform it. Furthermore, the base 23 of the protrusion 22 is inserted into the base engaging hole 43.

[0073] After the locking part 24 is engaged with the locking part 41, the tail 20 is released by hand, allowing the protrusion, which has undergone elastic deformation, to return to its original shape. This completes the installation of the tail 20 onto the third lure body 13 (see reference). Figure 4 ).

[0074] Next, the function of the lure 1 constructed in this way will be explained with reference to the attached diagram.

[0075] In the artificial bait 1 of the present embodiment, by inserting the protruding portion 22 of the tail portion 20 into the engaging portion 41 of the third artificial bait body 13 from the opening portion 42, the protruding portion 22 can be engaged with the engaging portion 41 of the third artificial bait body 13. At the time of engaging the protruding portion 22 with the engaging portion 41, the engaging portion 24 of the protruding portion 22 can be elastically deformed while inserting the pin 40 fixed to the third artificial bait body 13 into the locking hole 24a. Then, the tail portion 20 mounted to the third artificial bait body 13 is kept in a state of not being able to be separated from the third artificial bait body 13.

[0076] That is, a part of the pin 40 is supported to the artificial bait body main portion 130, and therefore, even in a case where the tail portion 20 is elastically deformed by being moved during use of the artificial bait, the pin 40 is not separated, and the engagement of the protruding portion 22 and the engaging portion 41 can be prevented from being released to cause the tail portion 20 to be separated from the body portion 10 (the third artificial bait body 13).

[0077] Further, in the present embodiment, the pin 40 is supported to the artificial bait body main portion 130 in advance, and therefore, at the time of mounting the tail portion 20 to the third artificial bait body 13, only the work of inserting the protruding portion 22 of the tail portion 20 into the engaging portion 41 of the third artificial bait body 13 to engage it with the engaging portion 41 is performed, and the work of inserting the pin and the work of positioning the hole of the pin 40 as in the related art are not required, and therefore, the assembly operability can be improved.

[0078] Further, in the present embodiment, by adopting the pin 40 of the elongated shape, a configuration in which the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is easily inserted into the locking hole 24a and the pin 40 inserted into the locking hole 24a is not easily separated is obtained.

[0079] Further, in the present embodiment, the protruding portion of the pin 40 is supported in a state of being buried in the artificial bait body main portion 130, and therefore, even in a case where the protruding portion 22 of the tail portion 20 is elastically deformed during use of the artificial bait 1, the pin can be more reliably prevented from being separated.

[0080] Further, in the present embodiment, the pin 40 is provided in an L shape in which the fixing shaft portion 40A extends from one end of the pin shaft portion 40B extending in the pin shaft direction to an orthogonal direction (i.e., a direction orthogonal to the pin shaft portion 40B). Therefore, the fixing shaft portion 40A extending in a direction orthogonal to the direction in which the pin 40 is separated is buried in the artificial bait body main portion 130, and accordingly, the pin 40 is more firmly fixed to the third artificial bait body 13.

[0081] Further, in the present embodiment, the pin 40 is set such that, as viewed from the side, an angle θ formed by a tangent line K1 of the pin tip portion 40a and a straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-rear direction is in a range of 0° to 90°.

[0082] In this case, when the protruding portion 22 of the tail portion 20 is inserted from the opening portion 42, the pin tip portion 40a faces the opposite direction to the insertion direction of the protruding portion 22, and thus the pin 40 is inserted into the locking hole 24a during insertion of the protruding portion 22 into the engagement portion 41. At this time, the protruding portion 22 is inserted into the engagement portion in a state of being elastically deformed, and thus the pin 40 can be engaged with and locked in the locking hole 24a. Also, even in the case where the tail portion 20 is elastically deformed when the artificial bait is used, the protruding portion 22 is not easily disengaged from the pin 40.

[0083] In addition, in the present embodiment, the above-described angle θ is set to a range from 0° to 90°, whereby it is not necessary to highly accurately align the positions of the pin 40 and the locking hole 24a of the engaged portion 24, and the manufacturing process is easy to perform. In addition, it is possible to suppress bending of the pin 40 in the insertion direction accompanying insertion of the engaged portion 24, and it is possible to insert the pin tip portion 40a into the locking hole 24a of the engaged portion 24.

[0084] Also, in the present embodiment, the first body 130A and the second body 130B, which are divided, sandwich the engaged portion 24 of the tail portion 20 to engage it with the engagement portion 41, whereby it is possible to easily perform the assembly work of mounting the tail portion 20 to the third artificial bait body 13.

[0085] Also, in the present embodiment, it is possible to fix the pin 40 to the artificial bait body 130 by simply sandwiching the pin 40 between the first body 130A and the second body 130B.

[0086] Also, in the present embodiment, the engagement portion 41 is formed to be larger than the cross-sectional shape of the opening portion 42, and thus it is possible to easily insert the engaged portion 24 into the engagement portion 41 while elastically deforming it from the opening portion 42.

[0087] Also, in the present embodiment, the pin 40 is configured such that an end portion (pin tip portion 40a) that is another portion protruding into the engagement portion 41 is located outside the artificial bait body 130. In this case, since the pin 40 is in a state in which one end (pin tip portion 40a) thereof protrudes outside the artificial bait body 130, it is possible to visually confirm the pin 40 from the outside of the artificial bait 1. Thus, it is possible to easily confirm the state of the pin 40, such as disengagement of the pin 40.

[0088] In the artificial bait 1 of the present embodiment configured as described above, it is possible to improve the operability related to assembly, and it is possible to prevent the tail portion 20 from falling off the body portion 10 (the third artificial bait body 13).

[0089] Next, a modified example of the artificial bait of the embodiment will be described. In addition, structural elements having the same function as the structural elements of the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description will be omitted with respect to these structural elements since the description is repetitive.

[0090] (First Modification)

[0091] Next, Figure 6 and Figure 7 The bait 1A of the first modification shown in FIG. 1 is configured such that the front end portion 40c of the fixed shaft portion 40A of the pin 40 provided in the third bait body 13 in the above-described embodiment has the groove portion 40b recessed over the entire circumference in the circumferential direction. The front end portion 40c of the fixed shaft portion 40A including the groove portion 40b, which is inserted into the pin support hole 44, is embedded in the bait body main body 130.

[0092] In the case of the first modification, the pin 40 is fixed in a state in which the bait body main body 130 is fitted into the groove portion 40b of the pin 40, and thus the pin 40 can be more reliably prevented from coming off even in the case where the elastic deformation occurs in the engaging portion 24 when the bait 1A is used.

[0093] (Second Modification)

[0094] Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the bait 1B of the second modification is configured as a straight pin, and only the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is provided, and the fixed shaft portion 40A of the above-described embodiment is omitted. The upper end portion 40d (the end portion on the opposite side of the pin top end portion 40a in the pin shaft direction) of the pin shaft portion 40B has the groove portion 40b recessed in a direction intersecting the pin shaft direction. The upper end portion 40d including the groove portion 40b is embedded in the bait body main body 130. Figure 8 In the bait 1B of the second modification, as with the first modification, the pin 40 is fixed in a state in which the bait body main body 130 is fitted into the groove portion 40b of the pin 40, and thus the pin 40 can be more reliably prevented from coming off even in the case where the elastic deformation occurs in the engaging portion 24 when the bait 1B is used.

[0095] (Third Modification)

[0096]

[0097] Figure 9 The bait 1C of the third modification shown in FIG. 3 is configured such that the pin shaft portion 40B of the L-shaped pin 40 is arranged in the up-down direction. The line connecting the upper end portion 40d and the pin top end portion 40a of the pin shaft portion 40B is oriented in the up-down direction.

[0098] The pin inclination angle θ of the pin shaft portion 40B of the third modification, that is, the angle θ formed by the tangent line K1 (double-dot chain line shown in FIG. 3) passing through the pin top end portion 40a as viewed from the side and a straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-rear direction is 0°. Figure 9

[0099] (Fourth Modification)

[0100] Figure 10 ​​The bait 1D of the fourth modification example is configured such that the pin shaft portion 40B of the pin 40 is bent into a U-shaped form. The pin shaft portion 40B is arranged so as to be bent by 180° from the rear end of the fixed shaft portion 40A extending in the front-rear direction, with the pin tip portion 40a facing in the front direction.

[0101] The pin inclination angle θ of the pin shaft portion 40B of the fourth modification example, that is, the angle θ formed by the tangent line K1 passing through the pin tip portion 40a (indicated by the double-dot chain line) and the straight line K2 orthogonal to the front-rear direction is 90°. Figure 10

[0102] The above describes the embodiments of the bait of the present application, but these embodiments are exemplified as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the application. The embodiments can be implemented in other various ways, and various omissions, substitutions, and changes can be made within the scope of the gist of the application. For example, the technical solutions that can be thought of by those skilled in the art, which are substantially the same and within the same range, are included in the embodiments and the modification examples thereof.

[0103] For example, in the above-described embodiments, the restricting member is a pin 40, but is not limited to the pin 40. For example, the restricting member can also be a plate member in a plate shape, a wire, or can be formed integrally with the bait body 13.

[0104] In addition, in the present embodiment, the main body portion 10 is configured to be divided into three parts, the first bait body 11, the second bait body 12, and the third bait body 13, in the front-rear direction, but the number of divisions of the main body portion 10 is not particularly limited, and the main body portion 10 can be divided into two parts or can be a main body portion without being divided.

[0105] Also, in the present embodiment, the third bait body 13 is divided into the first main body 130A and the second main body 130B and is configured to be detachable, but is not limited to this divided configuration and can be configured integrally. Even in the case of being configured integrally, the engaged portion 24 of the tail portion 20 can be elastically deformed, and the pin 40 can be inserted into the engagement hole 24a while being inserted into the engaged portion 41 from the opening portion 42 of the third bait body 13 to be engaged with the engaged portion 41.

[0106] In addition, in the present embodiment, a structure is shown in which the pin 40 has a groove portion 40b recessed in a direction intersecting the pin shaft direction, but is not limited to the recessed groove portion. For example, it can be configured such that a protrusion portion protruding in a direction intersecting the pin shaft direction is formed on the pin 40, and the protrusion portion is embedded in the third bait body 13. Alternatively, it can be a concave-convex portion using both the groove portion and the protrusion portion.​
