Need hook remover for very small panfish.

Freshwater Fishing Forum Crappie & Panfish

Hello,

I’ve been taking a lady fishing and she hates it when a small panfish swallows the hook. And I mean small panfish. Many from mouth to tail would fit across a mans palm.

Does anyone know of a hook remover that is effective and small enough for such small fish?

I found on amazon “Sams Fishing 10 piece multi color hook disgorgers,” but they look too big also.

If a link is allowed.

I usually carry around a pair of Hemostat pliers. They will fit into the mouth of some very small fish.:sunglasses:

Thanks tubeN2,

I’ll tell her to get some.

You can find some decent ones at a local medical supply or even at some of the tool surplus outlets.

Shimano makes a good set too. They come with a lanyard to go around your neck or tie to your fishing apparel. :sunglasses:
