Abstract
A fish hook and lure cover is attachable directly to a fishing rod. The cover comprises a housing which contains the hook and lure with the housing having first and second ends, being opened at the first end to admit the hook and lure and having a fishing line receiving slot along the upper surface of the housing from the first end to the second end of the housing. The cover has a rod attachment clip located centrally along the underside of the housing with a clip mouth which opens downwardly diametrically opposite the line receiving slot. The clip is pushed onto the rod to provide a balanced mounting of the cover and the line is loaded into the slot directly above and in the same direction as the clip is pushed onto the rod further enhancing the attachment of the cover to the rod.
