00:00If you've ever had a treble hook buried in a threshing fish or worse, in your own thumb,
00:04you already know why a good pair of fishing pliers is non-negotiable.
00:08I've been digging through the listings all week, and I found 5 pairs that people are
00:12actually buying by the thousands, all under 7 bucks. So here are the top 5 fishing pliers
00:17for safe hook removal, and honestly, a couple of these surprised me.
00:22Starting off with the stainless steel multifunctional pliers with the built-in
00:26hook remover and scissors. What I like here is the narrow nose, it slides right into a base's mouth
00:31and pops a hook out without you ever putting your fingers near those points. It's stainless,
00:36so saltwater isn't going to eat it alive after one trip. And the price? $3.82.
00:45Nearly 5,000 sold at a 4.9 rating tells you everything. At that price, buy 2-1 for the
00:51boat,
00:52one for the tackle bag. Next up is the titanium-plated stainless steel pair with the wire
00:57cutters and split-ring opener. This is the one I'd hand to somebody who fishes a lot of hardware.
01:04That split-ring tab on the tip means you can swap trebles or change out a lure without wrecking your
01:08fingernails, and the cutters go straight through braid and light wire hooks. $6.08, over 4,800 sold,
01:164.9 stars. That titanium plating is the real reason to grab it, it fights corrosion way better
01:22than bare steel. Third is the aluminum alloy pliers, 150 grams, 20 centimeters long. The length
01:30is the whole point here. That extra reach keeps your hand well clear of a snapping pike or a toothy
01:36saltwater fish, and because it's aluminum, it's light enough that you barely notice it clipped to
01:40your belt all day. It's also got a line cutter and knot tool built in. $3.53 makes this the
01:47cheapest
01:48on the list, and it's still pulling a 4.8 with almost 4,700 sold. Tough to argue with that.
01:55Number 4 is the hook extractor set, you can grab one or two pieces, and you get the choice of
02:00bent or
02:00straight tips. This is the surgical clip style, and if you do a lot of catch and release, this is
02:06your
02:06tool. That curved tip lets you get deep into the throat, lock onto the hook shank, and back it out
02:12clean without tearing the fish up. $4.60. $4,400 sold, 4.8 rating. Getting both the bent and straight
02:22version for under $5 is a genuinely good deal. And rounding out the list, the curved mouth
02:28multifunctional pliers. This one's kind of the do-everything option, cuts line, unhooks fish,
02:34open split rings, all in one curved jaw design that gives you a really natural wrist angle when
02:38you're reaching into a fish's mouth. Less strain, better grip, fewer slips. $5.01, 4.9 stars, over
02:474,200 sold. If you only want to carry one tool and you fish a bit of everything, this is
02:54probably
02:54the one I'd point you toward. Alright, that's the 5. All the links are down in the description,
