Quick take
A 230mm stainless steel fish grip that securely clamps large fish by the lower lip for easy handling and control.
The Daiwa Fish Grip V 230 is a trigger-operated fish gripper about 9.1 inches long, with a stainless steel handle and a black finish. It comes with a tail rope that helps keep it from slipping away while you work from a boat or shoreline. It suits anglers who want a compact tool for holding small to medium fish steady during unhooking.
