ABSTRACT:
A device for testing the hooking effectiveness of a fishing lure, comprising a frame, a pair of jaws representative of the jaws of a fish mounted on the frame for movement of the jaws toward and away from a closed position, and a resilient mechanism urging the jaws toward their closed position. The arrangement is such that a fishing lure comprising a head and a trailing hook is adapted to be pulled, head first, through the jaws with the jaws moving away from their closed position as the head passes between the jaws and thereafter moving under the bias of the resilient mechanism back toward their closed position. The trailing hook is adapted either to hook one of the jaws indicating that the lure is generally effective for hooking fish or to pass between the jaws without hooking one of the jaws indicating that the lure is less effective for hooking fish.
