Abstract
The fishing lure having two or more hooks is constructed in an upside-down 'T' formation that, in its simplest form, incorporates two hooks at one hundred eighty degrees from each other and a shank that is located between the hooks and is perpendicular to a shaft that connects the hooks. The shank has a loop, ring, or bend at the top where the fishing line is attached. The hook can be manufactured as either a two piece unit or as a one piece unit. The unit is produced with or without a weight and/or bead located at the junction of the 'T'. The hooks and the weight and/or bead will vary in size as required for the application in which it is used. The hook shafts may vary in length to accommodate a variety of baiting options and presentation styles. The weight, bead, and hooks come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and finishes.
