The Toit Fishing Short Nose Pliers are designed for dehooking, but also feature various holes in the handles to put your hook thru and tighten you fishing knot. Made from a Stainless Steel these Short Nose Pliers are ideally suited for removing hooks from small freshwater and saltwater species. This tool has an improved grip with a shorter jaw length providing greater grip strength and rigidity during hook removal. The unique handle design allows for the tool to get into fairly tight spaces, especially when working around fish gills inside the mouth. The shorter jaw length and fulcrum distance also prevent bending and twisting of the jaw tips.
