A pivoting fishing jig is provided. The device includes a jig body having an upper section and a lower section, wherein the upper section is pivotally affixed to the lower section at a first end of each of the upper section and the lower section. The jig body is selectively movable between an open position and a closed position. A first hook is affixed to a second end of the upper section. A connector is affixed to the first end of the lower section, wherein the connector is removably securable to a fishing line. In some embodiments, a notch is disposed along an interior surface of the lower section, wherein the notch is dimensioned to receive an interior edge of the upper section therein when the jig body is in the closed position.

Provided are titled fish hooks and methods and apparatus for making them and for using them and other fish hooks as well. The method and apparatus for the use is in fishing, and they take advantage of or discern unobtrusive colors, shades or colorless quality of the fish hooks to fish. A Braille apparatus for fishing is also provided.

A fish hook removal device (1) used for removing fishing hooks (11) from human skin. The fish hook removal device applies downward pressure on a shank (15) of a fishing hook via a forked tip (4) located on a distal end ( ) of a shaft (3) extending from a handle (2). A removal hook (10) extends from the shaft and engages a curve (13) of the fish hook to apply a rearward motion to the curve of the fishing hook. The simultaneous downward pressure and rearward motion aligns a barb (12) of the fishing hook with an entry point of a wound (18) as the barb is removed from the wound.

A fishing hook composition includes carbon fiber, graphene fiber, or natural fibers reinforced polymer composite, wherein the carbon fiber, the graphene fiber, or the natural fibers are embedded in the reinforced polymer composite with or without coupling agents.
