Quick take
A heavy steel club for quickly controlling large fish after landing them.
The Gibbs Fish Wacker is a one-piece alloy steel club about 16 inches long, made for dispatching a landed fish so you can get control of it at the boat or on the bank. This White Glow version has a flat striking point and a slim profile that stows easily in a tackle bag or boat compartment. It suits anglers who keep fish and want a simple handling tool within reach.
