Can It

Sharp objects and a stubborn fish often make for injured anglers.

December 1, 2003

Sharp objects and a stubborn fish often make for injured anglers. To keep the tools you need to snag your catch close, and your appendages safe at the same time, Hammerhead Industries came up with the RT2 Series Mini Gear Keeper for pliers. The palm-sized canister attaches to you with a snap clip mount and has a spring-loaded, self-retracting 28-inch stainless-steel cable to tether and retract the pliers to the angler. Prices start at $21.99.
