Hey, What is it? How did it work? If could be, I would want that someone link in the post any webpage for understand the work of this gadget or any scheme. I post a picture. Thanks.

looks like hook remover of some sort

yup, it's a hook remover. the line slides into the grove and guides it down towards the hook so you can push towards it to unhook it from the gut hooked fish.

Yep, hook remover for when a fish swallows a hook. use the small end for small fish and the large end for large fish. you just run one end down the fishing line into the fish's throat, and push deeper, to unhook the hook end in the throat, then the hook gets guarded by the bulbish fins, and you slide it back out of the fish's mouth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KD08svC55zo
