Overview
The ZACX Package B set pairs a T-handle EVA foam fish lip gripper with a separate aluminum fishing plier, covering fish handling plus hook and split-ring work in one purchase.
Package B is a two-piece set: a spring-loaded lip gripper for holding a fish steady, and a hollow-cut aluminum plier for cutting braid line and removing hooks or split rings. Both pieces are built for saltwater exposure, which matters since cheaper gripper springs corrode quickly near salt water.
- 4.3 inch EVA foam T-handle grip
- Hollow-cut aluminum plier body
- Spring-loaded, one-hand operation
- Lanyard included to prevent loss
Who it's for
Aimed at anglers who want a hands-free way to hold a fish's jaw while also carrying a compact plier for hook removal and split-ring work. Less useful if you only need one of the two tools, since the value is in the pair.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Spring-loaded gripper opens with one hand
- Aluminum plier handles line and split rings
- Corrosion resistant for saltwater use
- Lanyard loop guards against dropping it
- No reviews on file to confirm long-term corrosion resistance
Performance notes
The gripper uses a spring-loaded T-handle with a 4.3 inch EVA foam grip, sized to reduce hand fatigue when holding a fish at length. The plier uses a hollow-cut aluminum body to cut weight while still handling braid line and split rings. Both pieces are built for corrosion resistance in freshwater and saltwater, and a lanyard loop on the gripper is meant to stop it slipping overboard.
