Despite the Hookshot having its own page, someone's set up a separate page for the Clawshot featured in Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Seeing as the Clawshot serves the same purpose as a Hookshot, looks like a Hookshot and essentially IS a Hookshot, just with a different name, I think the Clawshot page should be deleted/merged with the Hookshot page. There really doesn't seem much point in separating TP from the rest of the games in the Hookshot category simply for the sake of a name-change.

Here's the Hookshot page.
Here's the Clawshot page.

A hookshot attaches to more things though, while a clawshot can only attach to those conspicuously placed grates that seem to be all over the place.

What hookshots can attach to varies from game to game. For instance, in Link's Awakening, the hookshot can attach to rocks, whereas in Ocarina of Time it can't.

But a clawshot can only attach to one specific thing, whereas a hookshot can attach to many more things. That's the main difference I think.
