Abstract: A fishhook tieing device including a handle, a spring clamp and a threading device. The spring clamp is attached to one end of the handle for grasping a hook. The threading device includes a spring wire loop end which is readily compressed to be pushed through the eye of the hook and thereafter expands to its original size whereby a fishing line end may be easily extended through the loop. Extraction of the loop end then pulls the line through the hook eye whereby the line may then be tied to the hook.
