Booms Fishing R1 Stainless Steel Fish Hook Remover Extractor, 11-1/2 inches

These Booms R1 SS Fish Hook Extractors look great and do the trick! I've been doing without them for years and now I'm wondering why I didn't find something like this earlier? The tool I received looks quite durable. I'm thinking the way that they're built, they should stand up to several years of usage. I found Booms R1 Hook Extractors to be an exceptional value.

I've dehooked everything from small bait fish to large dogfish and striper with this tool. Helps to have another person to hold the fish, but can be done solo if you're patient.

I got these as pliers to reach into inconvenient places, not for removing fish hooks. These are not precision tools but they're decently built for the price ($9.99) and will do the job. They're made of sheet metal, not solid steel. They will work fine to hold nuts or screws, pull wires, grab things that fell down etc. These are not high strength pliers, if you try to pull a nail out of hardwood they'll probably break. All in all a handy pair of pliers to have, good value at 9.99, just be aware of their limitations.

I am the queen of finding alternate use for things. :-) While I already had one of these grippers in my fishing tackle box, I decided I needed a safe way to pull things out of the garbage disposal. I put some lemon peels down to freshen the smell and they didn't grind all the way. Fishing them out with a knife was not fun and I wasn't putting my fingers down there. Now I can easily grab debris and also use the pliers to have a firm grip on scrubbie material to clean the goop that inevitably accumulates on the bottom. Disposal problems solved!

Only complaint is they don't float 😐 have lost a couple overboard. My pair pictured won't be lost!overboard (with my added float : ) Invaluable especially with large mouth fish that swallow hook. Allows for quick quick release of fish with minimal damage to mouth. Can't recommend this product enough.

Doesn't every fisherman hate when the fish swallows the hook or you miss setting the hook and it goes way deep inside of the fish. This hook removal tool has a nice reach to go inside of the fish and get the hook out. I have used it a couple times now when I am bait fishing for striped bass and they swallow the bait before I get a chance to set the hook. The tool goes right inside of the fish and you can grab onto the hook with ease and remove it without damaging the fish. I would strongly recommend this tool to anyone that bait fishes to help save more fish and do less damage removing the hook. This tool also works great on removing the hook from fish that have teeth. You don't need to get your fingers close to the fish and worry about it biting you. I have used it to remove the hook from a couple blue fish. I think this is a great tool for all fisherman and would strongly recommend it to everyone i don't know how i have gone so long without one of these. I received this product at a discounted rate for an unbiased and honest review.

These were purchased to weed around inground cacti and succulents, where fingers will pick up spines or do damages. They do work, but perform better if the weeds or grass are allowed to get a bit larger so there's more to grip. The tip can do shallow digging to better reach roots. They won't remove a mature dandelion, but will get one a few weeks old. They also can be used for removing leaf debris from spiney plants, though I prefer aquarium tweezers with the bent ends for that job.
