ABSTRACT:
A self-setting fish hook is disclosed that is automatically set in the fish by contact with the fish, the setting of the hook requiring no action from the fisherman. The hook comprises a latch assembly that latches the fish hook into a first bent position. The bending of the fish hook into this first position causes a stress in a spring member that tends to bias the fish hook back towards its unbent position. The latch is easily releasable so that upon a slight mouthing by the fish the hook will become unlatched, and the spring bias will cause the hook to set in the fish.
