Modularized spinnerbait rigs
A modularized spinnerbait rig includes an embedded fork system to change a spinnerbait head in real time and includes a pivoting assembly to cause the spinnerbait head to pivot.
1. A modifiable spinnerbait system, comprising:
a modular spinnerbait head having a body and a groove system formed within the body;
a fork depending from a spinnerbait wire frame, the fork having at least two tines extending therefrom in a direction of the groove system, the groove system including at least two channels to receive the respective tines, each tine having an eyelet formed thereon and configured for seating within the groove system;
a hook partially disposed in the body, the hook having a barb disposed apart from the body and an eye within the body alignable with the eyelet of the tine; and
a retention device adapted for insertion through a surface of the body and for extension through the eye and the eyelet to secure the fork to the body.
2. The modifiable spinnerbait system as in claim 1 , wherein the retention device is a screw having a set of threads and a receiver having a set of complementary threads to receive the threads of the screw.
3. The modifiable spinnerbait system as in claim 1 , wherein the retention device can be adjusted using a hand tool.
4. A modifiable spinnerbait system, comprising:
a modular spinnerbait head having a body and a bilateral groove system formed within the body;
a fork connectable to a spinnerbait wire frame, the fork having two tines extending therefrom in a direction of the groove system, the tines each having an eyelet formed thereon and configured for seating within the groove system;
a hook having a barb disposed apart from the body and an eye disposed within the body and alignable with the eyelets of the tines when seated within the bilateral groove system; and
a retention device adapted for insertion through a surface of the body and for extension through the eye and the eyelet to secure the fork to the body.
5. The modifiable spinnerbait system as in claim 4 , wherein the retention device includes a screw having a set of threads and a receiver having a set of complementary threads to receive the threads of the screw.
6. The modifiable spinnerbait system as in claim 4 , wherein the retention device can be adjusted using a hand tool.
7. A modifiable spinnerbait system, comprising:
a modular spinnerbait head having a body and a groove system formed within the body;
a spinnerbait wire frame having a fork extending therefrom, the fork defining at least two tines extending in a direction of the groove system, the groove system including at least two channels to receive the respective tines, each tine having an eyelet formed thereon and configured for seating within the groove system;
a hook partially disposed in the body, the hook having a barb disposed apart from the body and an eye within the body alignable with the eyelet of the tine; and
a retention device adapted for insertion through a surface of the body and for extension through the eye and the eyelet to secure the fork to the body.
8. A modifiable spinnerbait system, comprising:
a modular spinnerbait head having a body and a groove system formed within the body, the groove system including at least two channels;
a spinnerbait wire frame having a fork extending therefrom, the fork defining at least two tines extending in a direction of the groove system, the two channels being configured to receive the respective tines, each tine having an eyelet formed thereon and configured for seating within the groove system;
a hook partially disposed in the body, the hook having a barb disposed apart from the body and an eye within the body alignable with the eyelet of the tine; and
a pivoting retention device adapted for insertion through a surface of the body and for extension through the eye and the eyelet to secure the fork to the body, the pivoting retention device being configured to cause the modular spinnerbait head to pivot relative to the spinnerbait wire frame.
