  • WEIGHTED HOOKS FOR FISHING

The weight can reside on the shank and extend over at least a portion of the bend. The weight can be configured to have its mass distributed on the hook body to balance the hook such that, when trolling with the hook in water, the hook is stabilized in a position with the bend of the hook body being closer to a surface of the water than the shank being to the surface of the water.
