A protective head for bait fish that enables rapid adjustment of line position and bait shape without restringing the line or replacing hooks. The line runs through a plug that fits into any of several holes in the front of the bait protector. Using different holes changes the spin of the bait. To change holes, the plug is removed from its hole by sliding it along the line, the line is shifted to another hole along slots that connect the holes, and the plug is reinserted into the new hole; no rerigging is needed. Embodiments of the invention may also use a tuning wire that is inserted through the cup face and into the bait, and that can be bent to shape the bait as desired. The bait protector cup depth exceeds that of other protectors, eliminating the need for precise cuts to fit bait into the cup.

An improved apparatus for fishing in the form of a hook with multiple hook points, optional snag guard, auxiliary bait retainer, and an adjustable tension arm employed to provide variable tension between multiple hook points for the purpose of more securely and reliably setting a hook in the mouth of a fish.

The bait tackle device makes the process of adjusting one's fishing gear faster and easier. It allows one to quickly interchange plastic lures as well as quickly appropriate live and/or artificial bait. The bait tackle device allows one to quickly change weights without cutting one's line. Further, it allows one to use a treble hook which can be used with removable or threadable bait.

Apparatus for an attachment device for a fishing line. The attachment device includes an in-line snap and a piece of tackle. The in-line snap includes a shank, a bend, and a point. The bend extends from the shank and folds over to join the point at a gap portion where the bend contacts the shank. The point extends away from the shank, forming a channel to receive a continuous section of fishing line. A shaft extends between the shank and the piece of tackle. In various embodiments, a second in-line snap cooperates with the first in-line snap to support a piece of tackle between the two in-line snaps.

The present invention is an apparatus for fishing is provided in the form of a hook is herein disclosed with multiple hook points, an adjustable tension arm, optional snag guard and auxiliary bait retainer.
