ABSTRACT:
A snag-proof safety fishing lure includes a J-shaped hook having a barb at a curved end and an eyelet at the other end. A shield is pivotally connected to a shank of the hook below the eyelet to cover the lure when it is not submerged. When the hook sinks, submersion of the shield is limited to effectively lift the shield from the sinking barb. When the lure is lifted from the water, the weight of the shield causes it to be lowered onto the barb, effectively covering it to prevent snagging.
