Stainless steel pick for extracting squid and cuttlefish to use as bait.
The Belmont Oguru MP-123 is a compact squid squeezing pick for anglers who target squid. It is made of 420J2 stainless steel with a spear point and measures about 10 x 120 mm, weighing 0.5 oz. Its small size makes it easy to carry in a tackle bag or on a pocket lanyard.
