Smith’s RegalRiver 6-inch Floating Fish Gripper (12 Pack)
The Smith’s RegalRiver 6-inch Floating Fish Gripper is a practical fishing tool designed to let you handle and weigh fish safely with one hand. Built from heavy-duty corrosion-resistant plastic, it is tough enough for repeated use in fresh water and will not corrode or deteriorate when exposed to moisture. The ergonomic handle provides a comfortable, secure grip, while the quick-release locking mechanism holds the fish’s lip firmly until you are ready to return or retain your catch. Crucially, the gripper is designed to float, so if it goes overboard from a canoe, kayak or other lightweight watercraft it will not be lost. A wrist lanyard is included as an additional safeguard. This pack contains 12 grippers, making it well suited to fishing clubs, guides, or retail resale.

Great tool for handling fish without needing both hands. The floating design is a big plus when fishing from a kayak. It stays secure and doesn’t slip. I’ve used it on multiple trips and it’s held up well.

Works well for beginners and experienced anglers alike. The ergonomic handle makes it easy to use, and the floatation feature gives peace of mind. Only downside is the plastic can get slightly warm in direct sun.

Perfect for fishing groups. The 12-pack is sufficient for a small crew. The wrist lanyard is a thoughtful addition and helps prevent loss in the water.
