Description

【Technical Field】 【0001】 The present invention relates to a jig head. 【Background Art】 【0002】 A jig head may be used as a fishing rig. A jig head is a sinker provided with a line eye or a hook (see, for example, Patent Document 1), and is used, for example, with a worm attached. 【Prior Art Documents】 【Patent Documents】 【0003】 【Patent Document 1】 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2020-115795 【Summary of the Invention】 【Problems to be Solved by the Invention】 【0004】 <00OO025>When a jig head cast into the water lands on the bottom and is pulled forward by a fishing line tied to the line eye in that state, the posture of the jig head may become unstable and the jig head may tilt to the left or right and fall over. When the jig head falls to the side, for example, when a single hook is attached, the hook also becomes horizontal, making it easier to get snagged and reducing the fish's biting ability. 【0005】 The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object thereof is to provide a jig head that is difficult to fall to the side. 【Means for Solving the Problems】 【0006】 The jig head of the present invention is a jig head including a sinker, a line eye provided on the sinker, and a hook provided on the sinker, wherein rod-shaped portions protruding laterally are provided on the left and right side portions of the sinker, and the rod-shaped portions are softer than the sinker and have flexibility. The sinker has a first through-hole that extends from left to right, and a rod is inserted through the first through-hole, and the rod is fixed by filling the first through-hole with resin and hardening it, thereby forming the left and right rod-shaped parts. Furthermore, the sinker has a second through-hole that extends from front to back, and a connecting member made of a wire that is ring-shaped, with the line eye at the front end and the hook eye at the rear end for attaching the hook. The second through-hole is positioned diagonally so that its rear end opens at the rear end of the sinker and faces upward toward the front end, and opens at the front upper part of the sinker, allowing the connecting member to be inserted into and removed from the second through-hole. It is characterized by this. [Effects of the Invention] 【0007】 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a jig head that is less likely to tip over to the side. [Brief explanation of the drawing] 【0008】 [Figure 1] This is a perspective view of a jig head according to an embodiment. [Figure 2] This is a left side view of the jig head according to the embodiment. [Figure 3] This diagram illustrates a configuration in which the hook can be replaced in a jig head according to an embodiment. [Figure 4] This is a cross-sectional view of a jig head according to an embodiment. [Modes for carrying out the invention] 【0009】 Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings. Figure 1 is a perspective view of the jig head 1 according to the embodiment. Figure 2 is a left side view of the jig head 1 according to the embodiment. In this application, the up / down, left / right, and front / back directions are defined with reference to the orientation of the jig head 1 when it lands, and the direction in which the jig head 1 moves is defined as forward (directions are shown in Figures 1 and 2). 【0010】 The jig head 1 is equipped with a metal sinker (weight) 2 made of lead or the like. In this embodiment, the sinker 2 has a shape that mimics the head of a fish, but the shape and size of the sinker are not limited when applying the present invention. 【0011】 An eyelet 3, called a line eye, is provided on the front upper part of sinker 2 for tying the fishing line. 【0012】 The rear of the sinker 2 is provided with an eyelet 8 called a hook eye for attaching a hook, to which the hook 4 is attached. The hook 4 is a single hook that is curved in a roughly J shape, and has a shank 4a which is a straight shaft, a bend 4b which is a curved part connected to the shank 4a, a hook point 4c which is the tip, and an eyelet 4d at the end of the shank 4a, and is positioned so that the hook point 4c is facing upwards. 【0013】 In the jig head 1 according to this embodiment, the hook 4 is replaceable. The configuration for making the hook 4 replaceable will be described with reference to Figures 3 and 4. Figures 3(a) to 3(c) are diagrams illustrating the configuration for making the hook 4 replaceable in the jig head 1 according to this embodiment. Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view of the jig head 1 according to this embodiment. As shown in Figure 4, the sinker 2 has a through hole 5 that extends from front to back. The through hole 5 opens at the center of the flat rear end surface 2a of the sinker 2, is positioned diagonally so as to be upward toward the front end, and opens at the front upper part of the sinker 2. 【0014】 Furthermore, it is equipped with a connecting member 6 made by bending a metal wire 7 into an oval ring shape. As shown in Figures 3(a) to (c), the connecting member 6 can be inserted into and removed from the through hole 5 of the sinker 2. The connecting member 6 has a ring-shaped front end in its longitudinal direction, forming a ring portion 6a. When the connecting member 6 is inserted into the through hole 5, the ring portion 6a protrudes from the front end opening of the through hole 5, forming the line eye 3. Furthermore, the connecting member 6 has a ring-shaped rear end in its longitudinal direction, forming a ring portion 6b. When the connecting member 6 is inserted into the through hole 5, the ring portion 6b protrudes from the rear end opening of the through hole 5, forming a hook eye 8. 【0015】 The connecting member 6 is formed by bending the wire 7 into an oval ring shape, positioning one end 7a of the wire 7 on the front end side with the outside facing outward and the other end 7b on the rear end side with the inside facing inward, and overlapping one end side portion 7c and the other end side portion 7d of the wire 7. When attaching the hook 4, the eyelet 4d of the hook 4 is passed through one end 7a of the wire 7, and the eyelet 4d is moved to the ring portion 6b by passing it through the overlapping portion of the wire 7 (between the one end side portion 7c and the other end side portion 7d). When removing the hook 4, the eyelet 4d of the hook 4 is passed through the overlapping portion of the wire 7 (between the one end side portion 7c and the other end side portion 7d) without passing it through the other end 7b of the wire 7, and is moved forward. 【0016】 Here, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, in the jig head 1 according to the present embodiment, bar-shaped portions (hereinafter referred to as side bars) 9L and 9R that protrude laterally are provided on the left and right side portions of the sinker 2. The side bars 9L and 9R are made of a synthetic resin such as, for example, PBT resin (polybutylene terephthalate), are softer than the sinker 2, and have flexibility. By providing the side bars 9L and 9R in this way, when the jig head 1 cast into water lands on the bottom, and in that state, when it is pulled forward by the fishing line tied to the line eye 3, even if the jig head 1 tilts to the left or right, the side bars 9L and 9R serve as a cane, and it becomes difficult for the jig head 1 to fall sideways. As a result, the hook 4 can be kept upward, and it is possible to prevent the snagging and the biting of the fish from deteriorating. 【0017】 Also, when moving the jig head 1 in water, even if the side bars 9L and 9R interfere with an obstacle, the side bars 9L and 9R bend following the obstacle and pass through the obstacle without hindering the movement of the jig head 1. 【0018】 Hereinafter, the side bars 9L and 9R will be described in detail. In this embodiment, a through hole 10 penetrating left and right is formed in the sinker 2. One rod 11 is inserted into the through hole, and the through hole 10 is filled with a resin (for example, a two-component epoxy resin) and cured to fix the rod 11, whereby the left and right side bars 9L and 9R are formed. Although the left and right side bars 9L and 9R may be fixed to the left and right side portions of the sinker 2 separately, the fixing strength of the side bars 9L and 9R can be increased by the configuration in which the rod 11 is inserted into the through hole 10 as in this embodiment. Also, the configuration in which the rod 11 is inserted into the through hole 10 as in this embodiment can reduce the labor compared to fixing the left and right side bars 9L and 9R separately. Although the configuration in which the rod 11 is directly inserted into the through hole 10 has been described, a configuration in which a synthetic resin pipe (not shown) is interposed between the through hole 10 and the rod 11 may be employed. In this case, for example, first a synthetic resin pipe is inserted into the through hole 10, and a resin (for example, a two-component epoxy resin) is filled between the through hole 10 and the pipe and cured to fix the pipe. Then, the rod 11 is inserted into the pipe, and a resin is filled into the pipe and cured to fix the rod 11. 【0019】 In this embodiment, the side bars 9L and 9R are fixed to a position near the lower part among the side portions of the sinker 2. Also, the lengths L (see FIG. 1) of the left and right side bars 9L and 9R are the same, and the length L of each of the side bars 9L and 9R is approximately the same as or shorter than the maximum width of the sinker 2. The fixing position and length of the side bars 9L and 9R may be appropriately set according to the shape, size, position of the center of gravity, etc. of the sinker 2. If the fixing position of the side bars 9L and 9R is made too low (too close to the bottom of the sinker 2), the side bars 9L and 9R are likely to interfere with the ground. On the other hand, if the fixing position of the side bars 9L and 9R is made high, it is necessary to lengthen the side bars 9L and 9R to serve as a cane. However, when the side bars 9L and 9R become long, the side bars 9L and 9R are likely to interfere with obstacles in water. From such a viewpoint, the fixing position and length of the side bars 9L and 9R may be adjusted. 【0020】 Furthermore, in this embodiment, the side bars 9L and 9R extend straight laterally from the side of the sinker 2, but the side bars 9L and 9R may also extend forward, backward, upward, or downward. For example, if the side bars 9L and 9R extend backward, when the jig head 1 is moving in the water and the side bars 9L and 9R interfere with an obstacle, the amount by which the side bars 9L and 9R bend to follow the obstacle can be reduced, making it easier to slip past the obstacle. Note that, as shown in Figure 2, in a side view of the jig head 1, it is preferable that the tips of the side bars 9L and 9R are located inside the outer shape 2b of the sinker 2. This is because if the tips of the side bars 9L and 9R are located outside the outer shape 2b of the sinker 2, they are more likely to interfere with obstacles. 【0021】 Furthermore, although the shape of the side bars 9L and 9R is a straight, extending linear shape in this embodiment, it is not limited to this, and may, for example, have a curved shape. 【0022】 Although the present invention has been described above along with its embodiments, these embodiments are merely examples of how the present invention can be implemented, and the technical scope of the present invention should not be interpreted as being limited by them. In other words, the present invention can be implemented in various forms without departing from its technical concept or its main features. The present invention is broadly applicable to any jig head that has a line eye and a hook on the sinker. For example, in the embodiment, a configuration was described in which the hook 4 is attached to the hook eye 8 at the rear of the sinker 2 and the hook 4 is replaceable, but a configuration in which the hook is fixed to the sinker is also possible.
