Quick take
A metal spreader tool that opens a fish's mouth for safer hook removal and inspection without finger injury.
The Eagle Claw Fish Mouth Spreader is a small hand tool that props a fish's jaws open so you can reach a hook without putting fingers near the teeth. It weighs about 0.02 pounds and comes as a single piece for spinning and casting anglers. A handy add-on to a tackle bag for anyone who handles toothy fish or deeply set hooks.
