Too big for trout,August 23, 2009
By GWS243from Glenwood Springs, CO
"These are only available in size large which relly is only suitable for med-large saltwater flies (where proper pliers would suit better) or the largest of streamers & poppers. They are well-made and if that size suits you, go for it, but they are way too big for most freshwater applications."

Dr. Slick,June 22, 2009
By John314from Central, PA
"Cabelas only offers the large de-hooker. I returned this item but will try the medium if I can find it. I have other Dr. Slick products and they are all top notch."

Kind of wierd at first.,July 14, 2008
By TriplePfrom Winslow, Arizona
"I have never used anything quite like this before so as a "newbe" i felt them to be more trouble than its worth, then i got the hang of it and wonder how i did it before these, great product performs just as advertised and allows you to get the fish back in the water in seconds, if thats your thing."

Dr. Slick Catch & Release Hemostat,November 21, 2006
By QBallfrom Hull, Massachusetts
"What more is there to say than that these work exactly as advertised? They make retrieving a fly from a fish's mouth (or throat) easy, and I know I've returned a few fish to the water in good shape because I used the hemostat. It's one of 3 or 4 essential pieces of gear that hang on my vest every time I wade into the water."
