Quick take
A long-neck hook remover with a narrow serrated jaw that reaches deep into a fish's mouth to extract hooks safely.
This long-reach hook remover is built from stainless steel, a material that suits both freshwater and saltwater tackle. Its roughly 11.5-inch length keeps your fingers back from a fish's teeth and gills, while the narrow serrated jaws reach deep into the mouth to grip a hook. The spring-loaded handle lets you work it one-handed, and at about 4.2 ounces it stays light enough to carry all day. It comes as a single tool, for anglers who release fish and need to back a hook out quickly.
Best for
- Removing hooks from toothy fish like pike and catfish
- Ice fishing and saltwater fishing where corrosion risk is high
- Anglers who want extra reach to protect fingers from sharp gill plates
Skip if
- You fish for small panfish where shorter, lighter tools work better
- You prefer a multitool design with other fishing functions included
Strengths
- Long neck keeps hands away from fish teeth, gills and spines
- Stainless steel resists rust in saltwater and harsh conditions
- Narrow serrated jaw reaches hooks deep in the throat without damaging the fish
Trade-offs
- Narrow jaw limits use on fish with very large mouths
- Spring-loaded action requires firm hand strength to operate quickly
Fishing fit
- Water
- Freshwater
- Saltwater

Common questions
How long is the ReeMoo fish hook remover?
The ReeMoo stainless steel hook remover measures about 11.5 inches long, with a narrow serrated nose that reaches past the lip of a fish to grip a hook set deep in the mouth. The extra length keeps your fingers farther from the teeth and gills than a short plier would.
Is the ReeMoo hook remover suitable for saltwater?
Yes, its stainless steel body resists rust in saltwater, so it can be used on both saltwater and freshwater trips. The serrated jaws grip barbed hooks, but the tool is not designed as a line cutter or crimper, so keep a separate cutter for braid.
How much does the ReeMoo fish hook remover weigh?
The ReeMoo hook remover weighs about 4.2 ounces, a quarter pound or so, so it stays light on a lanyard or in a tackle bag. Its slim profile fits in a pocket, which makes it easy to carry on a day of wading or boat fishing.
Can the ReeMoo hook remover be used with one hand?
The spring-loaded handle of the ReeMoo remover lets you close the serrated jaws with one hand, so the other hand can hold the rod or the fish. Its 11.5-inch reach suits hooks in the mouth or throat, and it comes as a single tool.
