Best way to sharpen a fishing hook?

I realize that this is quite a simple task, but I know that there are a bunch of creative folks on this forum and I'm curious as to how people approach this job.

Fishing tackle stores sell a small sharpening stone that has a groove cut though it. You simply run the hook through that groove to touch up the point. In a pinch I suppose a fingernail clipper with its built- in file might also be useful and it's great for nipping off ends of knots when tying lures on.

Let's see...is there a Tormek jig for that?
