Dr Slick 5.5 Satin Bullet Head Plier
Dr Slick 5.5 Satin Bullet Head Plier is a compact pair of fishing pliers made for maintaining a firm, controlled hold on hooks during unhooking and other tasks that demand secure handling. Its short, paddle-shaped jaws have an aggressive gripping pattern that helps stabilise the hook, while the straight jaw arrangement allows accurate positioning and pressure.
Measuring 5.5 inches, the pliers are made from 410 stainless steel. An integral side cutter with a Rockwell hardness of 45 provides a convenient way to cut fishing line or leader material without reaching for a separate nipper. Foam-covered handles offer a more secure grip when hands are wet and make the tool more comfortable when greater pressure is required.
A holster and safety lanyard are included, keeping the pliers readily accessible and reducing the chance of losing them beside the water. After use, particularly in salt water, rinse the tool with fresh water and dry it thoroughly. An occasional small drop of oil at the pivot will help maintain smooth movement.
