The present invention relates to a controllable fishing lure. The lure is remotely controlled by the angler by a radio control transmitter on the fishing rod or proximate thereto. The lure can be steered by depressing buttons on the radio control transmitter. The depressions cause radio signals to be emitted from the transmitter, these signals corresponding to the movements desired by depressing the buttons. The radio signals from the transmitter are then received by a receiver, through an antenna, in the lure. The received signals are then processed by a controller that activates propellers, disposed on the lateral sides of the lure, whereby the lure is steered to the desired location in the water.
