    Abstract: A fish hook rig including a combination hook positioner, hooks and line connector. The hook positioner includes a bent wire main body with transverse portions at generally various angles or parallel to another transverse portion along the longitudinal portions.

The shank of each hook is bound by the connector such as fishing line to the hook positioner to position the plane in which the arcuate hook portion and barb of a first hook lies in a position generally at a desired angle relative to a second hook in the same or another plane that is also connected to the hook positioner.
