fishhook Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Does anyone remember the late seventies or early eighties a stainless steel fish hook removing tool that would grab the hook and had like a cam action that would turn hook around in the fishes mouth so you could easily extract it ! The ones today just grab the hook ? It was sold in Walmarts and k marts back in the eighties . It was the best fishing tool ever . But they quit making them ! I would buy one if someone had had one . Please post a pic if you have one . Thanks Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 Got a picture of what you're looking for? I just checked and there's a bunch of 'em on Amazon and Ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishhook Posted February 10 Author Report Share Posted February 10 Are you sure ? I looked all over ebay and Amazon! They look very similar to a common hook removing tool , but the have a cam in them that turns hook around! If you could please send me a picture. They quit making them 30 years ago . Was hoping someone had them in an old tackle box . thanks Paul . I don’t have a picture because I haven’t found any yet . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 I'm sorry, brother. I just now caught this! I just searched "fish hook removing tool" on Amazon and came up with a bunch of stuff. I'm sure none of them look like those from the 70's or 80's, though. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
