best pliers...

Which are the best pliers to use for hook removal?

Do you like the floating type or the stainless/steel?

Which brand do you prefer?

go to ur nearest medical supply store, and get u some (i think they are called) needle threaders, they are lockin pliers with cutters on the inside, best thing u can have clipped onto ur shirt! imho

definitely get some stainless steel ones.They don't rust after get wet and wear a tear. I use the long nose rapala's and they work great.

If you are talking about the ones that look almost like hemostats, then you are right on the money.
