Regardless of the species, a recently landed gamefish’s thrashing motion can challenge hook extraction. Add in a set of razor-sharp teeth of a slashing pike or barracuda, or imagine the venomous spikes of a hardhead catfish. The task is nearly impossible without the proper tool. Even gamefish without menacing teeth can swallow the hook beyond finger’s reach. Anglers typically use needle nose pliers to remove the hook, usually resulting in injury to the fish. The Lawaia De-Hooker tool makes removing a hook from any fish a breeze.
Available in three versatile sizes—7.25 inches, 9.5 inches, and a substantial 14 inches—it caters to a wide range of fish species and hook depths. The Lawaia De-Hooker can reach deeply into the mouth or gullet of any fish to quickly and safely remove the hook.
The tool allows a no-touch operation. Simply wrap the line around your hand and using the de-hooker in the other hand, catch and pull the hook away, removing the hook without harm to the fish or your hands.
The durable, non-corrosive design features stainless steel construction. An ergonomic TPE textured non-slip handle provides a strong grip even when wet and the lanyard hole in the end of the handle keeps the tool secure on a wrist strap during use. The lanyard hole also keeps the De-Hooker hanging within easy reach when not in use.
Whether you’re targeting aggressive pike with razor-sharp teeth or cautious catfish that swallow hooks deeply, the Lawaia De-Hooker is your go-to tool for efficient hook extraction.
