Overview
A two-pack of metal fish grippers with a three-tooth claw jaw for holding a fish's lip during hook removal, weighing or photos, sized to fit in a pocket or tackle bag.
The claw closes around the fish's lower lip rather than the body, which is meant to reduce handling stress compared to gripping with bare hands or a rag. The metal body is described as corrosion resistant, with the handle covered in colored plastic for grip. Two grippers ship per order, so a spare is on hand if one goes overboard.
- Three-tooth claw jaw design
- Corrosion resistant metal body
- Plastic-covered ergonomic handle
- Two grippers per pack
Who it's for
Useful for freshwater anglers who want a quicker, steadier way to hold a fish for hook removal or a photo before release. Less useful for anyone targeting larger saltwater species that need a heavier duty gripper.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Two grippers included as a set
- Compact enough for a pocket or tackle bag
- Claw grips lip rather than body or gills
- Built mainly for freshwater fish
Performance notes
The three-tooth claw locks around the fish's lip when squeezed, holding it steady for hook removal without the angler gripping the fish directly. The compact folded size is meant to fit a pocket, tackle bag or backpack, and the plastic-covered handle is intended to keep a secure hold even with wet hands.
