Abstract
A telescoping, pole-type lure retriever has a snare portion that wraps around a fishing line and is guided thereon for removing a fishing lure that is snagged on an underwater obstruction or weeds. An elongated pole has a number of telescoping sections that may be extended to a convenient length to disengage the lure. Each telescoping section may be locked in position by turning a locking nut that compresses a locking ring in a cammed fashion to grip a smaller diameter pole section. The snake portion has a knurled shank seated in locking engagement with a sleeve member and with the sleeve fitted in the end of one pole section.
