Torsion fishing hook apparatus with quick, harmless extraction and safe latching features

摘要

A fishing hook apparatus includes a resilient shaft including a shank segment which is substantially rectilinear and having a shank segment proximal end and a shank segment distal end and including a hook segment which is substantially rectilinear and having a hook segment connected end joined to the shank segment proximal end, the hook segment being extendable from the shank segment at an acute angle relative to the shank segment generally back toward the shank segment proximal end and outwardly from the shank segment and terminating in a hook point; a line engaging structure including at least one shaft loop formed in the shank segment proximal end by doubling a terminal length of the shaft back along the shank segment proximal end toward the shank segment distal end and then angling away from the shank segment to freely receive a strand of fishing line between the adjacent portions of the shank segment.
