Fishing hook with spring loaded gap closure

A fishing hook comprising:

• a fishing hook body including a hook shank and a hook bend extending from a lower portion of the hook shank;
• and
• a closure arm coupled to said hook body, the closure arm configured to move from an open position to a closed position for enclosing a hook gap within the hook body, the hook gap being a space between an inner hook side and an outer hook side of hook body which is at least partially within the hook bend,
• wherein the closure arm is held under spring tension in the open position, and springs to the closed position when released from said spring tension,
• wherein the weight of a fish caught within the fishing hook is configured to release said closure arm from said spring tension,
• wherein the closure arm is supported on a torsion spring,
• the torsion spring including a spring coil and a lower spring arm,
• wherein the closure arm extends from a first coil end of the spring coil, and the lower spring arm extends from a second coil end of the spring coil,
• wherein the closure arm and lower spring arm are configured to align at a first angle in the open position of the closure arm, and at a second angle which is smaller than the first angle in the closed position of the closure arm,
• the fishing hook further comprising a top spring holder and a lower spring holder,
• wherein the top spring holder is configured to hold the closure arm in the open position and under spring tension against the inner hook side of the hook body,
• wherein the lower spring holder is configured to hold the lower spring arm against the inner hook side of the hook body, below the top spring holder,
• wherein the lower spring holder is configured to permit the torsion spring to move downwards with respect to the hook body,
• wherein a downwards movement of the torsion spring with respect to the hook body releases the closure arm from the top spring holder, and
• wherein release of the closure arm from the top spring holder causes the closure arm to spring to the closed position to enclose the hook gap within the hook body.
