It's about 15 inches long, and looks like it may have had a handle attached on one end. Hand made for sure. It was found on a farm in the eastern side of Michigan. The "Catch" end has a worn spot about 3/8" wide in it so something has been attached to it.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

Maybe an antique fish gaff ? Looks like you'd shove it into the mouth and through the gill, then pull back and it would lock so the fish couldn't jump off.

Maybe a bull lead for hooking onto the nose ring?

The socket end would attach to a long pole. It's a pig catcher. It snaps over a hind leg and causes bacon.
