Fishing pliers are the swiss-army tool at the water's edge: they unhook a deep hook, crimp a sleeve, fix a split ring, cut a line. A good plier must be 316 stainless (corrosion), have wet grip (rubberised handle), and ship with a lanyard so you don't drop it overboard.
You will find fishing multi-tool pliers (split-ring + disgorger + cutter integrated in one tool), pure split-ring pliers (for opening and closing rings without deforming them), crimping pliers for copper and aluminium sleeves (with built-in templates), long disgorger pliers (for retrieving a deep hook from a harvest fish), and specialised pliers (lead, clip).
This section is mainly composed of the Flashmer range, complemented by Explorer Tackle and Owner on pliers for lure fishing and big-game.
