Product Information

Full details

The Halco Fish Ring Pliers are designed for anglers looking to quickly and easily change split rings on lures and terminal tackle. The key benefit is the ability to swap split rings without damaging them or stretching them out of shape. A potential caveat is that while they work with a wide range of split rings, they are specifically designed for this task and may not be useful for other types of pliers work. These pliers, crafted by Halco, are made from hardened tool steel and are designed for durability and ease of use.
