Abstract
EZ Fishhook is a faster and easier way to insert and hold the fishing line within the eyelet hole. The eyelet channel opening from the shaft into the eyelet hole compresses the fishing line while passing through eyelet channel. Once the fishing line is inside the eyelet hole, the fishing line diameter decompresses to the same size of the eyelet hole diameter; thus, the fishing line is held tight within the eyelet. The fishing line, with the fishing line knot, is pulled I through the eyelet hole until the fishing knot is tight against the eyelet. The fishing line knot is held outside the eyelet due to the fishing knot being larger than the eyelet hole. The tight fit between the fishing line diameter and the eyelet hole diameter holds the fishing line knot tight against the eyelet while fishing.
Claims1
A fishing hook comprising a hook shank with a hook gape and point at one end and an open eyelet at an opposing end;
- an eyelet channel adjacent said open eyelet for installing a fishing line into the eyelet without threading a fishing line end therethrough;
- said eyelet channel is defined a flat end surface of the eyelet turn and an opposing flat surface of the hook shank configured to apply compression evenly over the diameter of a fishing line while being drawn through the eyelet channel and into an opening of said eyelet;
- wherein said eyelet channel is sized for use with a fishing line such that compression of the line occurs without permanently damaging elastic properties and strength of the line;
- said eyelet is configured for an interference fit with said fishing line diameter after travelling through said channel and into the eyelet opening.
