What's the best bang for the buck? Used mostly for unhooking bigger fish. Seems most of the aluminum handle pliers bend and the so called stainless pliers seize up. Really don't want to spend more than 100.00.

Last year I bought a pair of stainless Danco split rings with the side cutters. They're awesome and only $25. Tons of different variations and colors. They've held up to snapper, AJs, specks, reds, bass, etc. No issues so far

Second the danco. I buy them because of the belt clip on the sheath.

Thanks for the info, Danco is the winner. Ordered a pair of Admirals and Riptide's.

These are much easier to get the hook out than pliers

But if you still need pliers, these are good ones with a partial rubber grip

Ive read the Piscifun pliers are good and I just ordered a pair from their website (cheaper than on amazon and free shipping). They haven't come in yet but they can't be worse than the nail clippers and tiny scissors Ive always worn around my neck in addition to the gerber multitool on my hip. Hopefully, I can consolidate my needs in the new pliers.

just get the skeletool multi tool so you have your knife, pliers and screw driver if needed. It's not too big so fits in your pocket easily, and just simply wash it out like you would do to anything else that was around salt water every trip.
Been having mind for about 6 years now with no issues.

CUDA makes excellent pliers as does Shimano
