I’m not sure who came up with the idea to start using forceps in the sport we know and love called fly fishing... but man, was that a genius idea!
All I know is that the best anglers in the world have been using forceps ever since, and you should too.
Forceps are one of the best tools you can use out on the river. Forget this essential gadget at home, and you’ll find yourself:
- Struggling to remove flies from fish
- Wondering how to hold flies while tying them securely
- Untangling knots all day long
- Swearing... a lot
- & a more unenjoyable experiences
By now, you’ve probably realized that you need forceps to make your fly fishing experience a little easier and a lot more enjoyable. But what should you look for when purchasing forceps?
Your forceps should be long enough, strong enough, and have a good grip to get the job done effectively and timely.
