Quick take
A spiral hook remover that rotates along the line to extract hooks safely without pulling against the fish's mouth.
This set of four hook removers pairs a spiral head with an aluminum and plastic body and comes with a storage tube. The head slides along the line to reach a hook set in a fish's mouth, and the ring opening adjusts to suit different line thicknesses. A magnet at the base picks up loose hooks. It suits anglers who release fish often and want a compact tool in the tackle box.
