  • Fishhook and lure
    Patent number: 4843754
    Abstract: A fishhook has a tapered conical sinker mounted on the upper end of the shank. The eyelet is offset at a 90.degree. angle to the shank. When this fishhook is mounted in an artificial lure, the entire fishhook, except the eyelet, is hidden by the body of the lure. The fishhook is sized to fit the lure so that there is no significant distortion of the lure. The position of the eyelet and the sinker prevent the lure from rotating during retrieval and the lure rides naturally in the water.
