Rapala Floating Fish Gripper / Pliers – 23cm
Make handling your catch quicker and easier with the Rapala Floating Fish Gripper, a practical 23cm fish-handling tool designed to provide a secure grip while keeping your hands away from teeth, hooks and sharp mouths.
 
The clever plier-style design allows the jaws to be opened and closed using the large handle, making it a useful addition to the tackle bag for predator, lure and general fishing.
 
And, as the name suggests, it floats – a particularly handy feature for a tool that's likely to spend much of its life being used right next to the water.
 
Secure Fish Handling
The shaped gripping jaws are designed to hold a fish securely by the mouth, giving you greater control when landing, unhooking, photographing or returning your catch.
 
This can be particularly useful when dealing with predatory species, where keeping your fingers away from the mouth and hooks is definitely preferable.
 
Floating Design
Drop ordinary fishing pliers over the side and you've potentially just donated them to the lake.
The Rapala Floating Fish Gripper is designed to float, making it much easier to retrieve should it accidentally end up in the water.
 
Easy Pliers-Style Operation
Rather than relying on a small trigger or complicated mechanism, the gripper features a substantial plier-style handle for straightforward operation.
 
At 23cm long, it's compact enough to carry with your fishing tackle while still providing useful separation between your hand and the fish.
 
Rapala Wrist Lanyard
The gripper is supplied with a Rapala-branded wrist lanyard, providing additional security when you're handling fish at the water's edge, on a boat or from a kayak.
