A keel attached to a central body of trolling spreader bar is configurable with a plurality of fishing lures as an assembly to mimic a small school of fish. The keel is angled to urge the lure assembly continually to one side or the other from what would be the normal straight line of travel of a trolling vessel. By attaching an angled keel directly to the lure/spreader bar one is able to easily set lines behind the vessel at varying angles and distances which greatly increase the width of the full trolling lure spread.

An illustrated view of an exemplary fish hook device for keeping the fish hook in a desired position is presented. The exemplary fish hook device is useful for keeping a hook straight allowing for fish line to pull straight through water to snag fish. Further, the fishing line will be easier and faster as well as using less fishing line when coupling the hook 101 on the fishing line. The fish hook device has a hook, a first eyelet and a second eyelet. The hook has a first prong hook, a second hook and a third fishing hook. A fish line is configured to be threaded through the first eyelet and directly run to the second eyelet where it is threaded. The fish line does not need to be wrapped around the hook to allow the for the fish line to pull straight through water to snag fish. An optionally weight may be coupled to an end of the fish line.
