ABSTRACT:
A fish hook holder for safely retaining a fish hook, while threading and securing a line or leader manually to the hook eye. The device includes an elongated, somewhat rigid, bifurcated body having a hollow, internal chamber, a plurality of rigid, hook engaging pins fastened laterally to said bifurcated body sections through said hollow chamber, said body having a closed fixed end and a slotted end formed by the bifurcated arms, the end slot including planar surface engaged walls in flush contact, the walls being parallel to the longitudinal axis of the body. A fish hook is engaged to a particular lateral pin inside the arcuate portion of the hook, while the shaft or shank of the hook is firmly held, positioned resiliently by the slotted, planar wall surfaces. The closed body end includes an aperture for receiving a removable fastener which allows the device to be attached to a fixed object or a person's apparel such as a belt which allows the operator's hand to be free to allow attachment of the line or leader to the hook and anchor the device to resist heavy longitudinal tension applied to the line or leader when pulling the knot tight.
