Lenhart's Mechanical
Fish Hook / Trap

Extremely rare hook patented by Adam I.
Lenhart, New Brunswick, NJ

Patented November 12, 1867 - Pat # 70868

Lenhart's patent is the first in which the
triggering device causes the fish to be
"gaffed" by the striking hook from under the
head as the spring contracts upon a strike.

There are only TWO OF THESE DEVICES
KNOWN TO EXIST!

In addition to the hook you will receive an
"Original 1867" Newspaper
announcing Lenhart's new invention.

These outstanding pieces of angling history
are a fantastic investment!
