Stonfo Slama Releaser

Stonfo Slama Releaser is a telescopic hook-removal tool developed for releasing fish caught on barbless hooks. It enables the hook to be removed while the fish remains in the water, reducing the need to hold it by hand. This makes it a practical choice for trout fishing and other catch-and-release situations where an efficient, controlled release helps to keep handling to a minimum.

To use the releaser, maintain control of the leader, guide the working end down the line towards the hook and disengage it with a smooth movement. The design is intended for use with barbless hooks, which can be released without excessive twisting or prolonged manipulation. Small and Medium versions allow the tool to be selected to suit the hooks used and the general size of fish being targeted.

The telescopic system provides useful reach during hook removal, then shortens the tool for storage and transport. A locking slider secures the extended section in position. After fishing, rinse the releaser with fresh water, dry it thoroughly and check that the telescopic mechanism continues to move freely before putting it away.
