Abstract: An application for a fish dehooker with a line latch includes a shaft with a handle at its first end. A partial loop is affixed at a distal end of the shaft and has an open section. A spring-loaded gate is pivotally affixed to the partial loop thereby covering the open section. The spring-loaded gate opens inward within the partial loop when pressed by a fishing line and closes after the fishing line passes, holding the fishing line within the partial loop.

Abstract: A stealth sinker is disclosed including a body member having a specific gravity greater than 1 and made from a material that reduces visibility to a target fish. A device for attaching a fishing line to the body member is also provided. The material is colored glass, lead crystal glass, colored lead crystal glass or a dense material coated with a reflective surface.
