Quick take

A compact screw-on spear head with four or five barbed tines for securing fish or frogs while wading.

This Unibell spear head is a barbed metal fork with four prongs, meant for gigging fish and frogs. It threads onto a pole with a screw fitting, so it packs small at about 7 inches long and roughly 70 grams. Anglers who spear in streams, ponds or shallow water can pair it with their own pole.

Best for

Spearing large catfish or eel in shallow water
Frog gigging in ponds and marshes
Shallow-water creek fishing

Skip if

You fish open water; a gaff is safer and easier
Your target is small panfish; a net works better

Strengths

Multiple barbed tines keep prey from escaping once struck
Lightweight and compact; fits in a vest pocket
Stainless steel barbs stay sharp and resist corrosion

Trade-offs

Effective range is very short; you must be within arm's reach
Barbs make the spear difficult to remove if the strike misses
Requires both hands to operate safely

Fishing fit

Water: Freshwater
Saltwater
