ABSTRACT:
A fish hook comprises a shank 12 terminating at one end in a barbed hook formation 14 and at the other end in a head 16. A hook-closing element 18 which is of resiliently flexible steel wire is mounted on the head 16 and is displaceable between a retracted position in which it lies adjacent the shank, and an extended position in which it extends across the gap between the shank and the tip of the hook formation. A detent pin 28 holds the hook-closing element in the retracted position. When the detent pin is pulled, the hook-closing element is released so that it moves, under action of its bias, from the retracted to the extended position.
