<p>An apparatus for detaching releasable snoods from a fishing line while at the same time unwinding the snoods from the line, if required, and for depositing the snoods in a storage box continuously as the line is hauled in by means of a winch positioned in front of the apparatus. Said apparatus cooperating with a hook handling means which orients and guides the hooks being drawn along by the snoods, via hook guides, to one or the other side of the circumference of a wheel provided with a peripheral groove for receiving the line, which is drawn over the wheel by a suitable pulling device and sets the wheel in rotation. Each snood having fastening means comprising a peg, rotatably attached to the line, and a ring attached to one end of the snood and detachably retained on the peg. A peg release disk lying resiliently against the periphery of the wheel for partly releasing the said pegs from the said rings. Fixed hook guides which guide the hooks while they are still being pulled along by the snoods, carrying the hooks over the wheel to a point on the wheel circumference at which the hook guides change direction and prevent further forward movement of the hooks, whereby the rings on the snoods are pulled off the pegs.</p> |
