A lip gripper is a useful tool for holding a fish safely while unhooking it. Especially with predators such as pike, zander and catfish, a lip gripper gives you more control and helps protect both the angler and the fish.
Why use a lip gripper?
With a lip gripper you can land and unhook fish in a controlled way without putting your hands too close to sharp teeth or hooks. Many models have a rotating head, which helps reduce pressure on the fish while it moves.
Useful for predator and saltwater fishing
Lip grippers are available in compact versions for smaller fish and stronger models for bigger predators. Stainless or corrosion-resistant designs are also suitable for saltwater sessions.
