Quick take
Spring-steel mouth spreader that locks open to safely remove hooks from sharp-toothed fish.
The Baker MS6 is a compact 6-inch mouth spreader made from galvanized spring steel. It holds a fish's jaws open so you can work a hook or lure free with your hands clear of the teeth. It suits toothy fish like pike, musky and walleye, and at about 0.12 pounds it slips easily into a tackle box.
Best for
- Pike, musky, and walleye where sharp teeth make hand removal risky
- Anglers wanting to release or handle toothy fish safely
- Quick and safe extraction of hooks without hand injuries
Skip if
- You fish for species with small or soft mouths
- You use pliers or forceps for most hook removal
Strengths
- Locking jaw opens the mouth wide and holds it in place
- Durable spring steel construction withstands repeated use
- 6-inch size suits most freshwater toothy fish species
Trade-offs
- Heavy and bulky for pocket tackle storage
- Works only on fish with large mouths
- Spring mechanism can weaken and lose grip over time
