ABSTRACT:
What is described is a hollow fish hook with a flexible, retractable barb. A barb retraction wire passes through the hollow fish hook and is connected to the barb. A leader wire is also connected to an eye hole in the fish hook. Spaced apart from the fish hook and attached to the leader and to the barb retraction wire are indicator pieces. When the barb retraction wire is pulled the two indicator pieces come closer to each other and touch when the barb is fully retracted. This provides an indication of when the barb is fully retracted.
