The fish hook cactus [Ferocactus spp] reproduces by seed. Its large, yellow or violet flowers are bell or funnel shaped. They're followed by small, sticky yellow berries in the summer. The berries contain seeds that drop to the ground and naturally root in the immediate area. Or the berries are eaten by birds and rodents whose digestive tract eliminates the seeds to grow over a wider area than the home grounds of the originally fruiting cactus

What hooks the fish?
There are two main types of hook - the J hook and the circle hook. J hooks are used by directly driving the hook through the bait and into the fish with a strong upward tug. The hook can end up anywhere from the stomach of the fish to the jaw or be snagged on the exterior of the fish. Circle hooks are swallowed by the fish and are set by winding the line tight. The shape of the hook causes the point to swing around the jaw. Typically, 95% of the hook sets are in the fish's jaw. This allows the fish to be released relatively unharmed. Circle hooks are used very successfully in deep water fishing.
