A device for deploying a fishing hook comprises a body (1), a holder (8) fixed to the body, and a member (9) movable relative to the holder between a first position in which a fishing hook (27) is retained and a second position in which the hook is released from the body, the member movable from the first position to the second position in response to impact of the device with water. The member (9) has a hooked end (20) that slides within the holder and cooperates with a notch (10) in the holder to retain the hook during casting until impact with the water causes a base plate (11) to lift off the fluted body (1) and drive the member upwards to eject the hook (27) from out of the notch (10). Devices may be daisy-chained together to deploy a plurality of fishing hooks at the same time. |
