Description: New old stock. This listing is for 1 The Keeper Hook. I have a total of 12 so quantity is listed if you would like to purchase multiple. The Keeper HookVintage Lever Action Fish Trap The Keeper Hook is a simple but effective cantilever action fish trap by Francis J. Aron. It was patented (#3,740,890) on June 26, 1973 and manufactured in Mastic Beach, New York. The trap is about 3 3/4" long and is made out of brass and steel. The trap functions by using a counterweight attached to the top hook which allows the hook to sit upright (as in the first photo). The lower hook is baited and the pressure created by the striking fish pulling on the lower hook, pulls the top hook down into the top of the fish.This trap can be found on page 194 of the book "Spring-Loaded Fish Hooks, Traps, & Lures, Identification and Value Guide" by author's William Blauser & Timothy Mierzwa. I highly recommend this book if you are collect fish traps. None of these hooks have been opened or used. These are new old stock. The item is sold as is and I do not accept returns.
