Abstract
A fly hook includes a shank with first and second ends. A first end portion of a keel bend extends from the second end of the shank at a predetermined angle from the axis of the shank to place an intermediate portion of bend to one side of axis of shank. A second end portion of the bend terminates in a rolled-out point which is bent away from the shank. The outer edge of the point is co-radially disposed with the first end portion of the bend. The barb is disposed opposite from the outer edge of the point and faces the shank. A hollow flexible body is secured at opposite ends to the shank and has a rigid V-shaped insert disposed therein. The insert has a shape to expand the body to an overall shape simulating a natural bait fish. The body and rigid insert extend from the shank in the same direction as the first end portion and the intermediate portion of the bend.
