This jaw spreader works well in the field. I used it on a largemouth bass and was able to remove the hook quickly without hurting the fish. The black-oxide finish holds up well even after a few days in the saltwater environment.
Adrian Ross –
Solid tool that fits nicely in my tackle bag. It’s easy to use and doesn’t slip when handling fish with sharp teeth. A little heavier than expected, but worth it for the reliability.
Andrew Duncan –
Great for removing hooks from trout and panfish. The stainless steel construction feels durable and the black-oxide coating prevents rust even after being exposed to rain and saltwater.
