Overview
An 11.5 inch needle nose pliers built for saltwater and freshwater hook removal, with a PTFE coated carbon steel body, bent nose tip and a wrist lanyard.
The extended length and angled tip target deep-set hooks on bigger fish rather than light panfish work, and the coating is meant to resist salt corrosion, though the maker itself notes rinsing after use to protect the hinge.
- 11.5 inch needle nose reach
- Bent nose tip for tight spaces
- PTFE coated carbon steel
- Includes adjustable wrist lanyard
Who it's for
Good for anglers targeting bass, snook, trout and similar species who need reach into a fish's mouth and some rust resistance for salt exposure. Not aimed at fly anglers needing a small, pocket-sized tool.
Pros and cons
- Extra reach for deep or awkward hook sets
- Comfortable non-slip grip with lanyard
- Corrosion resistant for saltwater use with rinsing
- Easy to misplace on the water
- Hinge can rust if not rinsed after salt
