Fisherman's Hook Repurposed?

Just acquired this well used instrument of hook and haul.

As a generous thank you in helping a friend clear and organize
her garage. Among other tools this one could help me in the
yard, maybe. What's the use in collecting more stuff when you
can't honestly have a use. In this case, just appreciating this
device can also be good reason to make room.

After grinding most of the rust away along a coconut rub on the well worn handle
gives it new life, but will it find a new life in this constant  garden?
