The present disclosure relates to a fishing lure which sinks to the bottom and upon retrieval it tends to rise to the top. The speed of rise depends upon the angle of the tongue in connection with the speed of retrieval, weight of the lure, size of the tongue, and fishing line placement to the bottom side of the tongue to the lure. The lure can be tethered by fishing line to an eyelet at a location on the bottom side of the tongue of the lure. This location may be along a range of locations on the bottom side of the tongue of the lure. This concept may be applied to any sinking lure that already exists, giving it the action of sinking down in the water and then swimming back up when line is retrieved.
