A hook removal tool primarily for use in the removal of fish hooks. Hooks attached to a line and which are at least partially embedded in a fish or other substrate can be extracted using this tool. The tool includes a body with a handle at or adjacent a proximal end, and having a guide member pivotally connected at or adjacent a distal end. The guide member has at least one guide aperture or slot adapted to engage with the line or hook in such a manner that the line and at least the shank of the hook are able to slide through the aperture or slot. The tool can be slid down the line to the hook and used to dislodge the hook and then to remove the hook out of the fish's mouth.
