Fishing hook and cover
The fishing hook and cover includes a fishing hook that is attached to an interior surface of the cover such that the fishing hook may be rotated inside of the cover when not in use, and conversely rotated outside of the cover when the fishing hook is in use. The cover features a first opening on a first distal end and a second opening on a second distal end. The first opening enables a fishing line to extend into the cover. The second opening enables the fishing hook to rotate inside of the cover or outside of the cover. The cover includes a hook hinge that is positioned on an interior surface of the cover. Moreover, the hook hinge is adjacent to the second opening, which enables the fishing hook to rotate from inside of the cover to outside of the cover.

DROPPER HOOK
A fish hook system includes a shank forming a bend and a barb on a first end, a first eyelet connected to the shank on a second end, and a second eyelet connected to the shank opposing the bend and the barb. The second eyelet is located either adjacent the first eyelet near the second end, along the shank near commencement of the bend, or along the bend of the shank diametrically opposed to the first eyelet.

DURABLE SNAGLESS SOFT-BODIED FISHING LURE
Disclosed herein are embodiments directed to a soft-bodied fishing lure which extends a fish hook when a fish bites on a back region of the lure. In its default or natural resting position, the soft-bodied fishing lure keeps the hook in a retracted state to prevent or otherwise substantially reduce the frequency of the hook becoming snagged on weeds, algae, and matted vegetation when the lure is being fished. In some embodiments, the hook may be secured to the soil-bodied fishing lure in a substantially vertical orientation by a set of nylon plastic members that were previously molded with the soft-body material of the lure. These nylon plastic members, which advantageously do not rust or exhibit the same sharp edging as metallic components, restrict motion of the hook in undesirable directions so as to substantially prevent engagement of the hook with the soft-body material of the lure.

Spring Actuated Weedless Fishing Lure
A spring actuated weedless fishing lure increases the chances of successfully catching a fish without entangling a hook on plant material. A weedless guard system prevents the hook from catching on weeds and compresses a spring to hold the spring and hook in a retracted position. When a fish strikes, the weedless guard system is released allowing the spring to expand and push the hook in a longitudinal direction to an expanded position away from other parts of the lure. This expanded position provides a greater area for the fish's mouth to engage with the hook without interference from other parts of the lure. The expanded position also allows the hooks to embed closer to the front of a fish's mouth and reduces the risk of the fish swallowing the whole lure.

Torsion spring fish hook
A fishing hook assembly that is either self-setting or initiated upon the fisherman setting the hook. A torsion spring placed at the head of the assembly which is interconnected by two shafts that are terminated by hooks. The hooks used on the first shaft termination can consist of a single hook, treble hook, or jig hook. The first shaft also consists of a latch placed at the end of the selected hook before the hook bend. The shafts are bent outward at 15 to 30 degrees at the torsion spring to allow closer proximity when compressed. The second shaft terminates with a single hook element and is the shaft where the release element is slide onto the shaft adjacent to the latch. The release element has a connection point where the fishing line is directly connected to the release element. The torsion spring is compressed bringing the first and second shafts together with the release element on the second shaft slide onto the latch located at the hook bend on the first shaft. The fishing assembly is engaged by the fish striking the assembly or by the fisherman setting the hook which slides the release element forward off the latch which expands the assembly.
