DEFINITION

Classification: 43/42.32

(under subclass 42) Lures constructed with a special surface or embellished in various ways for the attraction of fish.

(1) Note. Features other than or in addition to the basic subject matter of the group, which comprises a lure body, whether solid, hollow or of sheet material hook and/or line connections, guards and weights, are included here; e.g., rigid projections, as eyes, feelers, ears, legs, etc., real or artificial skins covering bait bodies, and other surfaces simulating scales, etc., reflectors, which are not mere polished lure members, special materials as wire mesh or shells, and multiple layer effects, including certain coatings. Coatings are included only if they cover a reflector or pattern or form a patterned effect.

(2) Note. Rigid fins which may be guiding vanes are classified as such in succeeding subclasses, even though disclosed as simulations.
