ULTIMATE LIFE SAVING PLIERS- Never leave home without it

[Siebler]

Im with Skrilla, Channel Lock's or Klein's. They will rust but just break them free and you are good till you lose them. Little lube via saltwater and you are golden. The dykes hold an edge very well and duck bills are the best for gripping hooks.

As for removal methods I too have done the line one a couple times on others and this method is the best by far.

I think what's wrong with his technique is that he is pulling up with the string rather than parallel with the surface. In this case since the diameter of his arm is curved, I would have actually pulled down.

When he yanks on the hook it comes out from under his buddy's thumb and the hook flips. I think if he had line attached to the eye of the hook his buddy would be able to keep it in place.
