ABSTRACT:
A fishing hook assembly including a connector for maintaining two J-shaped fishing hooks connected in tandem in axial alignment and occupying a common plane. The connector comprises a wire coiled in the center to define an eye. At both ends of the coil forming the eye, the wire projects outwardly to form parallel arms each terminating in a bent finger or hook. The arms are of unequal length. The two bent fingers are disposed perpendicularly to one another prior to installation. Each bent finger occupies a plane perpendicular to the other, and also perpendicular to a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the coil. After assembly, the eye of the connector encircles the rod of the leading hook. The short arm projects forwardly to engage the rod of the leading hook by its respective bent finger. The long arm projects to the rear to engage the rod of the trailing hook by its respective bent finger.
