ABSTRACT:
A fishhook extractor having an handle at one end and a shaft or blade with a fishhook engagement means at the other end is described. The blade curves downwardly and has a V-shaped cross-section. The apex of the V has a central groove and the V and central groove terminate in a smoothly integrated central notch at the blade end. The user positions the central V groove of the fishhook extractor against the tightened line and slides the tool towards the throat of the hook. Forward pressure with the extractor against the throat of the hook causes the barb of the hook to point in a direction which is close to the original angle of hook entry. The user then pushes the engaged tool to extract the embedded hook.
