Abstract
A fishing line being drawn around a pulley has spaced hooks hanging downwardly. The hooks are drawn through a chute where they engage a brush which acts to orient all hooks in the same direction as the pulley directs the line away from the chute which pulls the hooks upwardly through the brush while also moving along the chute. The oriented hooks are caused to engage over a fixed bar from which they can slide onto a hook-holding flange on a container in which the line leaving the pulley is being coiled.
