ABSTRACT:
A hook connector for connecting a snell, line or leader to the shank of a hook. The connector is formed as a short, resilient member of a tough, hard, synthetic resin such as nylon, which may be connected to or molded on a hook shank. The connector in one embodiment has a central passageway therethrough with a larger diameter portion meeting a smaller diameter portion at a shoulder therein. A snell is attached to the connector by threading it through the passageway, knotting the end of the snell, and drawing the snell back into the larger diameter portion of the passageway until the knot abuts the shoulder and engages the side wall of the passageway with a tight fit. In another embodiment, the passageway terminates at a side opening socket wherein the knot in the snell is snugly fitted.
