Abstract
A bait threading device which can be easily carried in the pocket of a fisherman yet has a bait threading needle which can be readily extended to accommodate various sizes of bait. In addition to affording the threading of a fishing line through the bait, the device of this invention also includes a cap member which is designed to aid in the removing of a hook from a fish as well as a means of tying a fishing line to the hook. On one embodiment, the bait threader device of this invention also has the advantage of not only acting as bait threader but also providing a hook removal feature in a unitary construction.
