Frequently Asked Questions

Are 24 cm pliers suitable for removing pike hooks?

Yes. Their length helps keep your fingers away from pike teeth and sharp hooks. For very large pike or deeply embedded hooks, 29 or 41 cm pliers provide more reach.

Can the pliers be used in saltwater?

Yes. According to the manufacturer, they are suitable for use in saltwater and the steel has SaltShield96 protection. After use in saltwater, the pliers should be rinsed with fresh water and dried.

Can these pliers cut braided line?

The manufacturer describes the product as hook removal pliers and does not specify a separate line or wire cutter. Use a dedicated cutter for braided line and wire.

How does the M-size differ from the XL model?

The M model is 24 cm and more compact to carry. The XL model is 29 cm long and provides better reach for larger fish or deeper hooks.

When is the Westin Unhooking Pliers M 24 cm the right choice?

The 24 cm M model is suitable for anglers who want pliers with sufficient reach but that take up little space in the lure bag. It’s a practical choice for regular perch, zander, trout, and pike fishing.

For specifically targeting large pike or removing deeply embedded hooks, the 29 cm XL model provides more reach. For regular handling of the largest fish, consider the 41 cm XXL version from the same series.

Recommendations

Keep the fish in a landing net or on a suitable handling mat while removing the hook and maintain control of the lure and line. Grip the metal part of the hook as firmly as possible with the pliers and release it with a movement opposite to the entry direction. Do not place your fingers near free treble hooks or pike teeth.

If the hook cannot be removed quickly and safely, for the well-being of the fish and the user’s safety, it may be wise to cut the hook with a suitable cutter. Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a strong hook cutter alongside the pliers.

After use, rinse the pliers with clean water, dry the joint, and store the tool open or in a dry bag. SaltShield96 treatment and PTFE coating improve usability but do not make the tool maintenance-free.
