Quick take

Extended-reach needlenose pliers with ergonomic grip and reversible carbide cutters for hook removal and line cutting.

The Gerber Magniplier is a 7.5-inch needlenose fishing plier built for pulling hooks and cutting line. Its SaltRx coating suits saltwater use, and the carbide cutters are reversible and exchangeable. A plunge lock and an angled, off-axis handle make it comfortable to work with, and a lanyard and belt sheath come with it.
