Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a lure for catfish fishing and a catfish lure fishing device equipped with the same, and relates to a novel configuration improved to prevent the loss of the lure for catfish fishing during use and to improve the fishing result.

Background Art

[0002] Catfish fishing among friends is widely loved among fishermen, and accordingly, many lures for catfish fishing to replace live bait catfish have been proposed. Of course, for catfish fishing enthusiasts, catfish fishing with live bait catfish (hereinafter referred to as live bait catfish fishing) is a much more exciting fishing method. In many cases, lures for catfish fishing are often used as a backup when the live bait catfish is weak and the fishing result cannot be expected, or when the live bait catfish cannot be prepared. Therefore, even in the case of catfish fishing using a lure for catfish fishing (hereinafter referred to as catfish lure catfish fishing), the fishing device 5 is the same as that of live bait catfish fishing as shown in FIG. 7 (so-called complete rigging (including overhead line), replacement rigging (excluding overhead line)), and generally, the nose ring 51 and the reverse hook 54 provided are used as locking means (see, for example, Patent Document 1, JP-A-2010-22306).

[0003] However, in the method of using such a fishing device 5 (live bait catfish fishing device 5B), first, the nose ring locked to the tip of the lure is a simple ring shape that does not load the live bait catfish and is easy to insert. On the other hand, for the reverse hook, it is only inserted and stopped by selecting a relatively soft part of the lure. When taking in a wild catfish hooked on the hook, if the wild catfish struggles, there is a problem that the locking at both positions comes off and the lure itself is lost. In addition, as described above, such a mounting method follows the situation of using a live minnow, and considering that the natural movement of the lure is reproduced by operating the fishing rod etc. to improve the fishing results, it is particularly important to appropriately set the position of the hook needle located behind the lure etc., but there was still room for improvement in the configuration for that purpose.

[0004] Furthermore, when using a lure for friendly fishing, depending on the fishing cooperative etc. that manages fishing in rivers, there are cases where unique regulations are established as catfish lure friendly fishing (catfish lure fishing) instead of minnow friendly fishing. As an example of such a regulation, there is one such as "the length from the rear end of the lure to the tip of the needle shall be within 7 cm", and in order to comply with such a regulation, it may sometimes be necessary to cut the leader short and then fix it.

Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0016] Hereinafter, the lure for catfish fishing of the present invention and the decoy catfish fishing device equipped with this will be specifically described based on the illustrated embodiments. It should be noted that technical modifications within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention can also be added to this embodiment.

Examples

[0017] Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described based on the illustrated embodiments. Reference numeral 1 is a lure for catfish fishing of the present invention, which is assembled to the tip of the fishing line L (underwater line) extending from the fishing rod R as shown in FIG. 1, and can be assembled and used in a device 5 used particularly for fishing catfish with live bait (hereinafter referred to as catfish fishing with live bait). First, prior to the description of the lure 1 for catfish fishing, the configuration of the device 5 used in general catfish fishing with live bait will be described. As shown in FIG. 7(a), the device 5 includes a nose ring 51 on the middle leader 50, a leader stopper 55 at the terminal portion of the middle leader 50, and further, a leader 56 having a hook 57 is connected to this leader stopper 55. Further, a reverse hook 54 is provided in front of the leader 56. Note that the middle leader 50 and the leader 56 are collectively referred to as a leader line.

[0018] The nose ring 51 includes a so-called C-shaped locking ring portion 52 with a part thereof being released and a closing piece 53 for closing the opening portion of the locking ring portion 52. The locking ring portion 52 is for passing through and locking the nostrils of a live catfish with a metal wire or the like, and the closing piece 53 is constituted by, for example, a flexible resin-made tubular member externally fitted to one end of the locking ring portion 52. Note that the nose ring 51 is provided with an incorporated thread 51a, and by inserting the middle leader 50 into this incorporated thread 51a, the attachment position of the nose ring 51 can be freely changed.

[0019] And the reverse hook 54 is engaged near the caudal fin C of the live bait catfish body F to play a role of restricting the induction range on the side of the hanging hook 57 to a certain extent. In this embodiment, a plurality of single - needle - type hanging hooks 57, for example, three are provided front and back. By using a pipe - attached type hanging hook 57, the hook tip can always face downward, and the back - hanging rate is very high, so the damage to the hooked wild catfish W can be minimized. Also, a triple hook can be adopted as the hanging hook 57.

[0020] On the other hand, the friend - fishing lure 1 is composed of a lure body 2 and a caudal fin piece 3 separate from it. The lure body 2 has a shape imitating the catfish body F, is formed of a hard resin or the like, and is appropriately painted. And the lure body 2 is provided with eyes for holding appropriate mechanisms and the like. At the foremost part, a front eye 21 which is an attachment part of the nose ring 51 is provided. Further, an abdominal eye 22 is provided on the ventral side (near the pectoral fin) at the central part in the longitudinal direction of the fish body, and a rear eye 23 is provided on the rear - tail side thereof.

[0021] On the other hand, a hairpin stopper 25 is provided on the dorsal side of the rear part (near the adipose fin) of the lure body 2. In this embodiment, a commercially available hairpin stopper 25 is used. One ring of this hairpin stopper is formed in a rhombus shape, and its top part is formed as a clamping part 25a with an acute angle.

[0022] And at the rear end of the lure body 2, a body - side assembly structure 27 for assembling the caudal fin piece 3 is provided (see Fig. 3). This body - side assembly structure 27 is composed of an anti - ant groove 27a extending vertically at the rear end of the lure body 2 and a narrow - width clamping groove 27b formed to extend rearward from the central side in the plan view of this anti - ant groove 27a. These anti - ant groove 27a and clamping groove 27b are configured such that the lower side is open and the upper side is closed.

[0023] Also, the caudal fin piece 3 is made of a flexible elastomer material. In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a thread guiding portion 32 is formed above a flat fin-shaped portion 31. The thread guiding portion 32 has a guiding hole portion 32b at its central portion with respect to an outer cylinder portion 32a. The guiding hole portion 32b guides the fishing line (middle leader 50, leader 56) of the fishing tackle 5 to be movable in the front-rear direction. The thread guiding portion 32 is provided at a position displaced (biased) from the vertical center of the caudal fin piece 3.

[0024] Furthermore, since the caudal fin piece 3 is configured to be attachable to the lure body 2, it has a tail hook side attachment structure 33. The tail hook side attachment structure 33 has an anti-loosening projection 33a formed on the front end side of the fin-shaped portion 31. The anti-loosening projection 33a is configured to be inserted downward into the anti-loosening groove 27a in the main body portion side attachment structure 27. Also, with respect to the clamping groove 27b in the main body portion side attachment structure 27, the front portion of the fin-shaped portion 31 of the caudal fin piece 3 is clamped and assembled in a form that prevents detachment.

[0025] Then, for such a lure 1 for catfish fishing, the fishing tackle 5 is assembled to form a catfish lure fishing tackle 5A. First, a nose ring 51 is locked to the front eye 21 in the lure body 2.

[0026] Next, the leader 56 having a hook 57 is passed through the guiding hole portion 32b in the caudal fin piece 3 from the rear, and connected to the leader stopper 55 so that the hook 57 is led out behind the caudal fin piece 3. In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the leader 56 is tied to the leader stopper 55, but it may be connected by simply clamping it in a clamping portion (not shown) in the same manner as the leader stopper 25.

[0027] When assembling the workpiece 5, to which the leader 56 is already attached to the Harris stopper 55, to the fishing lure 1 for friendly fishing, since the leader wire guide portion 32 is made of a flexible elastomer material, the guide hole portion 32b can be easily expanded and deformed with the finger, and in this state, by passing the hook 57 through, the hook 57 can be led out behind the caudal fin piece 3. Also, the operation of passing the hook 57 through the guide hole portion 32b may be performed with the caudal fin piece 3 separated from the lure body 2.

[0028] In this case, when it is necessary to comply with the regulations (for example, "the length from the rear end of the lure to the tip of the needle shall be within 7 cm") determined by the fishing cooperative or the like that manages river fishing, while measuring with a measuring tool or the like, the attachment position of the nose ring 51 to the middle Harris 50 can be adjusted to make a setting that conforms to the regulations. The settings shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 5 are such that the length of the leader 56 led out from the rear end of the caudal fin piece 3 is relatively long, and furthermore, the reverse hook 54 is locked to the abdominal eye 22. Also, the setting shown in FIG. 3 is such that the length of the leader 56 led out from the rear end of the caudal fin piece 3 is the shortest. In the figure, the reverse hook 54 is not locked anywhere, but the reverse hook 54 may be locked to the front eye 21. In FIG. 3, as shown by the virtual line, the connection point of the leader 56 may be the Harris stopper 25 on the lure body 2 instead of the Harris stopper 55 on the workpiece 5. Incidentally, FIG. 3 shows the state of being fixed by sandwiching it against the sandwiching portion 25a of the Harris stopper 25. Of course, when it is not possible to cope with the adjustment of the attachment position of the nose ring 51 to the middle Harris 50 in this way, the length is adjusted by cutting the leader 56 or the like.

[0029] And angler A casts the catfish lure fishing rig 5A with such a configuration into the targeted point in the fishing ground as appropriate. By appropriately casting the fishing rod R and other operations, the fishing lure 1 for friendly fishing in the water moves as if it were a live catfish, guiding it to the territory of the wild catfish W and inducing an attack from the wild catfish W. Although not shown in the figure, in order to sink the fishing lure 1 for friendly fishing into the water, a weight is attached to a position several tens of centimeters in front of the fishing lure 1 in the middle Harris 50. After that, the wild catfish W, which regards the fishing lure 1 for friendly fishing as an enemy that has invaded its territory, tries to ram into the fishing lure 1 and drive it out of its territory. At this time, it will get caught on the hook 57.

[0030] And when the angler detects that the wild catfish W has been hooked through vibrations transmitted to the fishing rod R, the angler stands up the fishing rod R to draw in the catfish lure fishing rig 5A and attempts to catch the wild catfish W using the tamo N. At this time, the wild catfish W will struggle while being hooked on the hook 57. Due to its vibrations and the like, the nose ring 51, which is in a relatively loosely inserted state, may fall off from the lure body 2 as shown in FIG. 5. In such a situation, in the existing lures described in the background art, subsequently the reverse hook 54 will fall off, resulting in a situation where the entire lure is lost due to falling off. However, in the catfish lure fishing rig 5A of the present invention, since the guide hole portion 32b of the fishing line guiding portion 32 in the tail fin piece 3 is penetrated by the Harris 56 having the hook 57, the entire fishing lure 1 for friendly fishing is held at that part, preventing it from falling off from the rig 5.

[0031] Furthermore, depending on the situation of the fishing ground, there may be attempts to increase the fishing results by bringing the hook 57 closer to the riverbed. In such a case, in the fishing lure 1 for friendly fishing of the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 4(a) to FIG. 4(b), the mounting state of the tail fin piece 3 with respect to the lure body 2 can be turned upside down, and the fishing line guiding portion 32 can be moved from above to below, realizing a state where the hook 57 is closer to the riverbed. Such a morphological change is possible because the ant-groove engagement is carried out in each mounting structure. After pulling out the caudal fin piece 3 downward along the longitudinal direction of the ant-receiving groove 27a, the caudal fin piece 3 is turned upside down and reassembled in a state where the downward guide hole portion 32b is positioned. As a result, the pulling-out position of the barb 56 is led out from the lower part to the rear of the fishing lure 1 for friendly fishing, and as a result, a state is obtained in which the hook 57 is positioned closer to the bottom of the river below.

[0032] The present invention is based on the configuration described above as a basic embodiment. However, when assembling the caudal fin piece 3 to the lure body 2, the configuration that allows it to be assembled upside down is not limited to the above-described ant-groove engagement. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, a form in which the caudal fin piece 3 is inserted and fixed to the rear of the lure body 2 can be adopted. Specifically, as an example, a core protrusion 27c is formed on the lure body 2 side, the tip portion thereof is configured to be in a so-called inverted shape, a core base portion 27d is configured on the base side of the core protrusion 27c, and this core base portion 27d is configured in a so-called tapered shape with the front side being thin. On the other hand, the caudal fin piece 3 side also forms a core receiving hole 33c and a base covering portion 33d correspondingly, and is configured to be externally fitted so as to wrap the core protrusion 27c and the core base portion 27d from the outside. Even in such a configuration, it is possible to assemble the caudal fin piece 3 to the lure body 2 in an upside-down state.
