Abstract
A fishing hook has a head having at least two vertically arranged holes through which a fishing line is inserted. When the fishing line is threaded through both of the vertically disposed holes, the hook is stabilized in a substantially orthogonal posture relative to the fishing line, thus enhancing the likelihood of catching fish, especially with a drop-shot technique. Because the single head is small and compact, it is not exposed when the lure is affixed to the hook, thereby improving the likelihood that fish will be tempted by the lure.
Claims12
A fishing hook comprising:
- a single head having at least two vertically aligned holes through which a fishing line is inserted, the holes positioning the fishing hook orthogonally relative to the fishing line.
A fishing hook comprising:
- a head;
- a shank extending from the head;
- a bend extending from the shank, the bend terminating in a point separated from the shank by a gap;
- wherein the head has at least two vertically arranged holes through which a fishing line is inserted.
1 more element
A fishing hook comprising:
- a head that includes a first hole and a second hole, the first hole and the second hole being arranged vertically such that the first hole is above the second hole to thereby create a hook-positioning lever effect when the hook is attached to a fishing line through both the first hole and the second hole, the lever effect positioning the hook in an orthogonal posture relative to the fishing line when the line is attached to a weight.
