ABSTRACT:
A fish hook includes integrally connected hook, shank and eyelet portions which are formed to both increase fish catching efficiency and to minimize damage to hooked fish so that fish can normally be released essentialy unharmed. The eyelet portion is substantially aligned with the tip of the hook portion so that the tip can more effectively penetrate the jaw structures of fish, and the shank is bent outwardly from the hook portion to provide clearance around the jaw structures of fish. The overall construction of the hook and shank portions normally prevents the hook from passing into the inner mouth areas of fish in order to avoid causing serious damage to the fish.
