Default Fishing tips

Try this one

Ive tried all kinds of pliers and the best I have found are a type of electricians plier.


I bought them many years ago for bending wire for spinners. Just happened to try them 3-4 weeks ago, and they are awesome!!! Went to Canadian Tire to get a second pair, yikes a bit pricey at about 25 bucks. But they are the next best thing to a machine(as long as I am wearing magnifying glasses).
Work best on small to very large hooks. Might not work on size 14 and smaller, but havent tried either.


At the tip is a square on one "jaw" and on the other it is round.

I honestly dont think you will find any better hook pincher out there, I actually dont mind spending a little time pinching now. Usually one quick pinch and done. Before I could mess with a hook for a full minute trying to get it pinched well enough(I am pretty fussy).

Will post a picture when I get back
