ABSTRACT:
A fishing lure retrieving unit of substantial and rugged construction for the retrieval of artificial fishing lures that become snagged or fouled on underwater objects, such as logs, rocks or underwater vegetation. The retrieving unit is provided with several forward grappling hooks of comparatively heavy gauge metal for the purpose of bringing the submarine obstruction to the surface with the lure intact, thereby minimizing any damage to the lure itself. In those cases where the obstruction, due to its physical mass or physical features cannot be brought to the surface by the grappling hooks, the device is provided with secondary hooking means for the purpose of engaging the barrel or snap swivel attached near the nose of the fishing lure, thereby permitting its retrieval by forceably pulling the hook through or around the underwater object. In those lures which contain several free swinging, multiple barbed, mounted fishhooks, the retrieving unit in badly snagged or snarled underwater conditions is able to snag the free hook, thereby gaining a solid parcel on a lure allowing it to be pulled free of the underwater object.
