Thanks for the review! I'm thinking of getting a pair of these. I have to agree with the other commenter who suggested attaching your clamps to a zinger--or even just a short coiled lanyard. Anything that costs more than $10 I attach to myself somehow. Otherwise I'd just be shedding tools everywhere I go. Maybe that's just me. One question I have has to do with the clamping mechanism. I'm not sure I have the right vocabulary for this, but I will try to phrase my question as precisely as I know how. Is there more that one ratchet point when you clamp it? I.e., is there tight AND tighter (when you squeeze a little more)? And even more important for me, when you want to release the clamp, can you do so just by squeezing even further, thus passing past that last groove?
Just got my Rogue hook removal forceps. Similar to yours, but has the hook removal tool on it. Yeah, mine does not have the carabiner. Will be fishing this Sunday, I'll let you know what I think about it.
I'm not a fisherman, but still like to check out all of your videos. Always interesting. Keep going!
+Pascal Kaegi thanks!

The carbriner might fail and u might lose the forceps. Those carbriners tend to fail after awhile. And yea need brighter color to not forget.
It seems that your not staying with your "Path Less Pedaled" theme
