To provide a hooked bait holding device in which the hooked bait of a hairtail hook can be maintained without being displaced due to excessive water pressure.SOLUTION: A hooked bait holding hook 15 is attached to a leader 1 in an immediate top of a rubber tube 10 of a conventional long-bodied hairtail hook 8 with a barb, and thereby the hooked bait 7 may not be moved to a temporary-hanging position 14 of the long-bodied hairtail hook 8 with the barb by hooking and hanging the top of the hooked bait 7 to this hooked bait holding hook 15. Further, in the hooked bait holding device, the octopus bait 4 is covered in a skirt-shape to hide a fishing tackle and the fish bites the long-bodied hooked bait 7 safely in comparison with before, and therefore high fishing catch can be expected.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5【課題】太刀魚針の刺し餌が過度の水圧などで、位置ずれしないで、維持できる刺し餌保持装置の提供。【解決手段】刺し餌保持針15を従来のケン付き胴長太刀魚針8のラバーチューブ10直近上部のハリス1にとりつけ、この刺し餌保持針15に刺し餌7上部を刺し吊るしてケン付き胴長太刀魚針8のチョン掛け位置14には刺し餌7が移動しないようにした。さらにタコベイト4をスカート状に被せて仕掛けを隠し魚は従来に比べ安心して長めの刺し餌7を食べに行くので、高釣果が期待できる刺し餌保持装置。【選択図】図5
