Engineered for trout, designed for real-world days on the water

The Trout Pliers by Loon Outdoors blend the precision of hemostats with the practicality of pliers, delivering a tool that feels balanced and sturdy without being oversized. At 7.5 inches, this model sits comfortably in hand and tucks away in a pocket, ready for long days along the river, around reed beds, or inside a vest pocket during a quick wade.

Key capabilities that matter on the stream
