ABSTRACT:
A weed shield attachment is disclosed that is used on a conventional fishhook, such as a single, double or treble hook. The attachment is a thin plastic bulbous shaped element which has a central sleeve for fitting on the stem of the hook and an integral bulbous skirt that extends rearwardly from the forward end of the sleeve, inward of but immediately adjacent to the pointed end or ends of the fishhook to deflect away weeds. The skirt is flexible so that it will collapse to enable a fish to be caught on the hook.
