ABSTRACT:
A fly hook includes a shank with first and second ends. A first end of a bend of the shank extends from the second end at a predetermined angle from the axis of the shank. The bend terminates in a rolled-in point which is bent inward toward the shank. Further, the spear end of the hook is further bent inward toward the shank to bring the point into a substantial parallel position with respect to the shank. A body of buoyant material is disposed about the first end of the shank and, in combination with the offset bend, maintains the point of the hook in an upward position during drawing in of the hook. In another embodiment, the point is rolled out from the shank and a barb is formed exteriorly of and extending outward from the bend of the fly hook.
