The Manleys can't be beat. But no matter what type you choose try them on your biggest hook you carry ist to make sure they're gonna do what you need when you need it. Sure gonna bite iy your connected to a big bass or blue by a 6/0 or 7/0 VMC and your way out on a rock by yourself- like none of us have done that LOL-and your cutter won't cut you free. OUCH.I've rescued a couple people includin myself with my manleys.Got 6 pair. one in each plug bag.Had 8 but some nice freinds borrowed a couple pair LOL-no plug bag is safe around freinds LOL

Jinxed myself damnit!

Walked into a Bomber hanging in the basement not 12 hours after my last post!

Cut the split ring with my Manleys in front of the bathroom mirror.

Then off to the ER for a shot and some TLC from the nice lady there.

SO GLAD I've steered clear of the VS pliers Cool Aid! I'd have been driving around with the whole Magnum hanging off my face instead of just the hook.
