Hi Dryrod,
I have a tool that has a handle that looks like an old wire loop pop bottle opener and the other end looks like a tack remover but with rounded corners. the shaft has a flat surface you can utilize to hold the line taught between it and your finger while removing offending hook out of fishy.
Can't say it works as I have always, 100%, without fail, not a single instance otherwise, never-failed, perfectly hooked fishy right in the left corner of its mouth close enough to the front edge that all I had to do was blow on the fly gently in the right direction for it to dislodge and fall to safety. With my hooks being barbless and the added feature of points designed so as to either disintergrate in flesh within 10 minutes of an absence of tension if broken off as well as to enable the wound to be self-healing once the hook point was removed. Having a permanent coating of an anti-bacterial, anti-fungal finish, I am assured that said fishy will not 'catch' anything.
