These 5 inch (125mm) Mosquito medical forceps-hemostats make great fish hook removal tools. They're ideal for catch & release fishing & safe removal of small barbed fish hooks. If you use them on the smaller 22 to 10 sizes fishing hooks you should be able to crimp the barb & extract the hook with minimal damage to the fish. Larger hooks or ones stuck deep in the fish's mouth may need larger/longer sized hemostats.
Why pay more just to get "free" shipping on a tool that will likely rust? All Indigo® brand hemostats are true medical grade satin finish stainless steel guaranteed not to rust.
Need a snelled fish hook disgorger or extractor? Something to squeeze out a fish hook that is more delicate than fishing pliers? Try Indigo medical forceps. From redfish to catfish to bass, they work on just about any fish you can think of.
These hemostats (locking forceps) are made with AISI 420 German surgical grade stainless steel, not "alloy steel" recovered from rusted cars. See "Documentation" for the chemical analysis certificate.
