The fishhook tattoo has many meanings besides those connected with fishing and the sea, sometimes being quite personal, but generally associated with safety, good luck, salvation, strength, connection, and protection.

On the spiritual side, the hook is a representation of endurance and strength during one's personal journey. It is a memory of overcoming or of a goal achieved.

Some other common meanings are freedom, strength, and life. For some people, it represents prosperity and perseverance, as the hook has long been a symbol of survival and a working tool.

In Polynesia, among the people Maorithe hook is a very important instrument, since their survival came from the sea. In this culture the hook, besides being a good luck charm, has many meanings, and some of the most important are: prosperity, abundance, knowledge, and union.

It can also be a tattoo option in memory of a loved one or representing the union of a couple, when done with a composition that symbolizes that the person was ?hooked? by someone.
