A bladed weighted fishing lure is provided in which the blade is designed to oscillate side-to-side during retrieval and is loosely, but securely affixed to a wireform. The wireform includes an inferior portion that is rigidly secured to a weighted body and includes a medially placed feature for attachment of a fishing line. The weighted lure body includes a forward end and a back end. The oscillating action of the blade creates a unique motion of the weighted lure body creating two degrees of freedom. The first degree of freedom results from the side-to-side blade motion affecting a like side-to-side motion in the weighted lure body through the rigidly attached wireform. The second degree of freedom results from the loosely attached blade, having sufficient mass that as it oscillates side-to-side, as it comes in contact with the wireform creating a “hammer” effect during each oscillation, the resulting contact is transferred through the wireform and rigidly attached weighted lure body to create a laterally opposing side-to-side motion in the front portion and back portion of the lure. A hook may be attached to the weighted lure body.
