Built extra tough and packed full of innovative features, the Rapala Elite Pliers 7” will be the last pair of pliers you ever need to buy for fishing. Made from premium steel for strength and durability, the Rapala Elite Pliers 7” are armed by Cerakote, which is a high performance, lightweight coating that protects against abrasion, corrosion, and UV rays. They also feature a patented “Mag Spring” that keeps the jaws open for easy use and a “Mag Lock” that tightly secures the jaws for safe storage. The hybrid jaw design provides interlocking front teeth that ensure a lock-tight clasp on hooks while a flat area on the rear of the jaws are built for gripping line and leaders as well.
