Abstract: A fish attracting device having a flat elongated body is attached to a fishing line several feet in front of a fish capturing means such as a lure. As the device is drawn through a body of water, the device rotates as passing water contacts eight deflecting surfaces. Rotation is further enhanced by a center opening reducing drag and providing a streamlined path for water flow. Rotation causes turbulence and noise as well as visible flashes of reflected light from a mirror-like or a brightly contrastedly painted body to attract surrounding fish.

Abstract: A snag-hook particularly adapted for salmon fishing having barbed tines having a central stem terminating into an eye for the attachment of a fish line thereto, the hook may be a three-tined barbed hook having a two-piece weighting device extending from the hook in a direction away from the tines and eye of the hook. The two-piece device constitutes a crown and weight detachably joined by a screw-threaded coupling and clamped to the bight portions of the tines of the hook. The weight may be a generally cylindrical member having a knurled peripheral surface which may be readily grasped by the fingers of the user, and having a threaded boss extending from one end thereof. The crown may be a generally cylindrical member having a bore extending therethrough to receive the eye of a particular size hook. One end of the crown is slotted in accordance with the number of tines of the hook to receive the tines.
