ABSTRACT:
A weedless fish hook comprising a conventional fish hook having a shank with a hooking end and an eyelet end and a length of thin, flexible pliable and pierceable tubing. One end of the tubing is snugly fitted over the hooking end of the fish hook so as to protectively conceal the tip and barb until ready for use. The other end of the tubing may be inserted through the eyelet and trimmed to a suitable length when ready for use. To expose the tip, the tubing is manually flexed between the eyelet and the tip of the hook toward the shank. To insure exposure of the barb, the user need only slide the tubing prior to piercing the tip through the side wall of the tubing. A weedless treble hook and a lure having either form of the weedless hook are also disclosed and claimed. The tubing may also be internally lubricated for further corrosive resistance for the hooking end.
