How do you patent and market a fishing plug?

How do you patent and market a fishing plug? This is 2 questions. To patent anything in the U.S.A. you must file an application for patent in the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office. Typically, the inventor or his/her company will use a registered patent attorney to prepare, file and prosecute the patent application since the procedures for filing and prosecuting a competent patent application are incredibally difficult and expensive. To market a fishing plug, if the inventor is not already in the business of producing and selling fishing plugs, the inventor probably should try to find and approach companies that are already in the business and either sell the invention or license the invention to the company. To be safe, the over all answer to the basic questions is to find a patent lawyer in or near your city and ask for help in the procedure of patenting and marketing the invention. A list of patent lawyers and patent agents that have passed the bar exam of the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office may be found on the web site of the Patent Office: uspto.gov.
