Any recommendations for a good pair of saltwater fishing pliers? $100-$150 range.

absolutely wouldn't spend that much on pliers for my boat. I have a mix of $3 pliers around the boat and it never seems to be that I have a pair handy.

I have a pair of Abel pliers that I bought 20-25 years ago. They still look and function like they’re brand new and have been used a lot over those years in both fresh and salt water

ETA: If I remember right they were about $150 at the time.

Pick up two cheap pairs of stainless ones from Academy. They will do everything you need them to do.

If you’re a Sitka wearing guy, Van Staals. But any will do the job.

If you want to spend more than $30, then go all in and buy van staal titanium pliers.

I’d just buy a $30 pair of cheap danco’s every 2-3 years though. They last pretty good and I’m not scared to lose them.

I like most here think it's nuts to spend that much on fishing pliers. I just got an unexpected gift that had a Bubba filet knife and pliers. I have not used either yet but both seem to be well made and have some coating that is supposed to be impervious to SW. Not sure what they cost either (Bubba stuff high as Snoop Dogg), but prolly less that VS type stuff.

Cheap from Cabela's, spend the difference on a mini-can of wd-40 for the tackle box and Aftco gloves so everyone knows you mean business.
