I have several different sizes of hemostats if I can remember to take them.
what I would like to find is a pair of snippers similer to cutical snippers only with handles like those of hemostats that can cut small hooks or at least get down to the eye of the hook and cut the line. this alone will help the survival rate of hook swallowers.
coming up with a good pair of hemostats can be rough at times. I have thown away at least half dozen pairs of cheep ones that I paid top dollar for of which bent the second I tryed to clamp on a hook, and keeping the good ones is hard to do when you are fishing with your biddies, the have a habit of getting up and jumping out of the boat. LOL
