ABSTRACT:
A barbless fish hook having particular application to fly fishing. The fish hook has a flat barbless point which is specially shaped to penetrate and remain embedded in fish and yet can be easily removed by the fisherman. The point has opposing flat surfaces, one of which faces the shank. The side edges which bound the faces of the point converge from a pair of nodes to form a sharp tip. The width of the point between the nodes is greater than the diameter of the wire which forms the bend of the hook.
