A fishing assistance apparatus. The fishing assistance apparatus is fabricated from a club that has two ends, a handle end and a distal end. The handle end has a strap for grasping by a hand, while the distal end of the club has a gaff hook, which extends outward to the distal end and then bends backward one-hundred eighty degrees. An individual could grasp the handle end of the fishing assistance apparatus and use both the distal end of the club and the gaff hook in combination with each other to successfully pull a game fish onto a boat, pier, or the like.
