A trotline organizing and storage device includes a tube having a first end, which is closed, and a second end, which is open. A slot, positioned in a wall of the tube, extends from the second end to proximate to the first end. A rod is coupled to the first end and extends axially through the tube to proximate to the second end. The rod configured to position a fishhook of a trotline around the rod. Adjacent fishhooks of the trotline then are sequentially positionable upon the rod until all of the fishhooks are stowed within the tube. The shanks of the fishhooks are positioned through the slot such that line attached to eyes of the fishhooks is positioned outside of the tube. A cover is configured to reversibly couple to the second end to retain the fishhooks within the tube.
