KastKingIntimidator Fishing Pliers, Corrosion Resistant Polymer Coated Fishing Tools, Tungsten Carbide Cutters, Saltwater Resistant Fishing Gear

I started fishing again as an adult over 30 years ago, but it only recently occurred to me that a curved-nose pliers might be useful, especially so I could see what I'm doing trying to remove hooks from fish (duh!) These seem very sturdy but not too large or heavy. No flex, even at the curved tips. Also good for picking up small items out of tackle boxes, and crimping split shot. Don't know how long they'll last, but at this price it seems moot. (I'll still keep my hemostats for more delicate work.)

We used these right away and it’s long enough to easily access hooks. It’s comfortable to hold and very sturdy. We even used it to break something in half because we didn’t have scissors. It definitely is useful and comes in as a great backup to help for other uses.

Great grip on the handle. Well made

Really good for the price. Super durable

These have sufficient length to get down into the throat of a large fish to dislodge a hook. They are well made and worth the money if you fish a lot. I highly recommend them.

This works, small and large. I wish I knew about this thing years ago. My son uses this for fishing, but I’ve also used it for other things, like the small rings on my camera that attach to the camera strap, the dog tag on the dog’s collar. I wish I had this tool years ago.

I’m actually really impressed with these fishing pliers. They’re awesome for getting hooks out of catfish, and the braid cutter slices through 80 lb braided line like it’s nothing. Feel super solid and well-made too.

So the good first, ergonomically they are a good fit. The tips are well designed for fishing. Out of the box, it is obvious the machine is sub par and you have to work them back and forth and they never really feel smooth. I even tried lubricating the joint with WD-40 and it made no difference. They function just fine and I will keep them. There are cheaper options available from your local tackle shop. One suggestion, I wish it has some way to tether it to my tackle bag.
