You
can tell the folks at Izorline spend a lot of time on the water, their

of fishermen with unique products, quality made products, that do just
what they are supposed to do.

The
Deckhand series of products came about to fulfill the needs of
professional fishermen. The handles are slip-proof, the dikes cut wire
and cable well, and they flat out last. The standard Deckhand is a
dandy, functional value. The stainless steel Deckhand offers additional
corrosion protection. It's a premium item, not cheap, but it's a
terrific long term value.
$15.50 $30.20
Besides bringing Spectra to
the long range scene almost a decade ago, Izorline offers many other
products fishermen consider essentials. Their rigging kits are
a well thought out and worthwhile investment for any angler getting
started rigging their own lures, or for an old salt wanting a boat
kit that covers all the bases. The Izor kits include a bunch
of aluminum crimps, springs, even a crimper if needed.

Edge
World
The
folks from Edge World make some nifty tools for fishermen.
Their Ti Matte finish will look really
similar to another firms "titanium coated" tools which were discontinued last year
(hmmm, their initials are Shimano). Those tools cost $14-16.
Going to a different source, with a different handle material,
saves you some big time bucks. These are not some cheap import
piece of excremental dung. They're darn good tools, made
from high grade carbon steel with non-slip handles. They're
an import but are of good quality and great value tools. Double their price, you
still won't find a better product on the market.

- COSMETIC UPGRADE, SPRING
LOADED FOR EASIER ONE-HANDED USE, BETTER CUTTER
SHAKESPEAR AND
FRENZY PLIERS
Well,
as you'd expect, after a couple high profile companies like Accurate
entered the market in premium pliers, many more suppliers have hoped
to duplicate their success. Chinese manufacturers, picked up on the
trend and made a good product. They've taken it shopping to
several U.S. tackle firms who now offer a bit of a knock-off.
Typically I'm not all that impressed with this type of stuff. But,
from a functional and economic standpoint there's something to be
said this type of competition. ProFish Co., Frenzy and Shakespeare
offer a couple products worth checking if you're in the market for a
good set of pliers/cutters and don't want to face the prospect of
shelling out over a hundred bucks for the originals.
Here
are three of the best values in better quality pliers we've come
across. Pictured: Frenzy and Shakespear's 7.5" plier, Shakespeare's
6.5" economy plier (with blue handle). The All come with a sheath,
lanyard, and feature rubber grips and cutter. The larger pliers have
a sharpener built into the plier, textured grip, replaceable cutter
that can cut braided lines. They are all stainless steel, with the
big Shakespeare also having a titanium coating. No doubt, all will
require some maintenance when used in saltwater (that's simply the
nature of saltwater, no steel is impervious to it's effects).
All are very good values, and worth the money.
P-Line Calypso
Pliers
P-Line's Calypso Pliers
are quite similar to the ones listed above, spring loaded,
stainless steel, tungsten carbide line cutters, with belt pouch
and lanyard. They have a soft grip handle and are available in a
7.5" and 6.5" size. The quality is quite good, the pricing is
even better. They're not quite as nice as their Adaro series,
but they'll get the job done equally from a functional
standpoint.

P-Line Adaro
Pliers
The
folks at P-Line are getting into the premium plier market, too!
Their tools have always been of very good quality. These pliers
are made in China like the others in this -Better- section.
Looks to me like they come from the same factory. The P-Line
Adaro Pliers carry a retail of $79, but we have them offered
here for $39.99! The pliers come with a cordura sheath a nylon
lanyard. They're available in three colors, use separate
tungsten carbide cutters and coated carbon steel jaws for
strength and durability. They're made from lighter weight
aluminum verses stainless steel (as the ones above are made),
more similar to the Okuma and Accurate pliers in this important
respect.
Evolution Pliers
Here's
a nice pair of pliers, an upgrade from other lower priced
imported imitative versions of $130 Accurate pliers. They're
made from aluminum, replaceable jaw, replaceable cutters and
nice knurled handles. They're a definite upgrade from some
similar models we sell at about $30-39. The manufacturer expects
them to retail at $89-99, and they have sold at that rate elsewhere.
But, we think they're a better valued pair of pliers at $60.
But, we're doing better than that with our offer below. Sold with
lanyard and sheath.

BETTER, MUCH BETTER
Saw
these first at ICAST back in J uly, now
finally being supplied to us. Okuma has three new fishermen's tools on
the market. Three new premium pliers, each a bit different. All are made
from solid machined aluminum. All are anodized the same as the reel
model they correspond to by the same name. All feature tungsten steel
cutters, for both mono and braided lines. All are spring use a spring
loaded mechanism allowing the jaws to open when not under pressure (easy
one hand operation). All come with a sheath and lanyard. That's the
common part of the product range. But, they do differ. The most
traditional is the Cavalla Plier, in black.
These
utilize a long nose design for easy hook removal and other typical
tasks. The Cedros (blue/black) offers a high-end split ring plier, for
complimenting vertical jigging jobs. (name corresponds to a new line of
machined lever drag and star drag reel). A good split ring plier is a
nice thing to have if you do a lot of jigging for deeper water fish, and
these just might be the best ones ever built that were dedicated to that
style of fishing. Their handles are ported to reduce weight. These are the
nicest working split ring pliers I've used, wonderful in that regard. The
jaws will fill quite a few rolls. The Makaira matches up to a new line
of tournament quality reels that are not here yet, but will represent a
significant leap for Okuma in terms of performance. This plier has more
of a bull-nose design, wider with more grip surface. They're ported for
weight reduction. This is the pair that would probably prove most useful
on a boat or while working (home or job)! All three cut Spectra
beautifully.
BEST
The
creative folks at Accurate also have some very nice pliers, that
only a few will have the opportunity to own. They are not going to
be produced in high volume, they are a bit esoteric. But, my gosh
are they nice! The APL-7's are very light in weight, with a cutter
that will slice through just about anything, cleanly. The cutter
can also be replaced when needed, easily. Despite their very light
weight, the Piranha Pliers are super strong, made from 6061-T6 Aluminum,
440C heat treated stainless steel replaceable jaws and cutters which can
cut through braided line and wire cable!
Braid Super Crimper!
Here's
a long awaited new product from Braid Products. Their new HD Power
Crimper is pre-calibrated for accuracy. No longer will you be unsure
of just how much pressure is required to complete your crimp. With
the Power Crimper it knows how tight to go! All you do is place the
sleeve in the matching groove, then compress until the ratchet disengages.
If you make an error and select the wrong size groove, the jaws will not
close. It will handle crimps from #1 to 2.5! Great for covering
almost all your crimping needs from light lines all the way up to 300#
Here's
another new product from the folks at Braid Products that we're quite
impressed with. We've been waiting for these crimpers and split
ring pliers to become available for months. I saw them first
almost a year ago. Simply put, they are the nicest compact
crimpers and split ring pliers I have ever come across. Despite
their small size these crimpers (swagers) are very powerful and capable
of handling 200# line size crimps! They feature 4 positions, twin
cutter for mono and wire, a soft comfortable ergonomic handle with
stainless steel and strength in their construction. The Split Ring
Opener has two positions, a cutter for mono line, soft comfortable
handle and liberal use of stainless steel where you need it. Both are
about 7 inches in length and compact enough to fit in your tackle box.
The power really is surprising. They are terrific products and also
represent a darn good value. I bought a pair of the "crimpers" several
months ago. They fit in my tackle box without problem, but even more
amazing, THEY WORK! Finally a compact crimper with some power and
precision! Please, do yourself a favor. If you wanted to buy a pair of
crimpers for your long range use, to have on the boat... These are great
and they don't cost a bundle either. You'll like their feel, very strong
and secure. There's no wiggle or play, just solid and powerful. We also
use the split ring pliers here at the shop. They are so much better than
what we've been using in the past it's not funny. They make the job
easy.
Braid's Newest
Tools
For 2008 Dennis Braid really
is hitting his stride with three new tools and many new lures. In
April we received three new cutters, all of which do what they
should do...and a bit more!
The most basic is pretty
much a straightforward Spectra Cutter -scissors, but with a
twist. It also cuts wire up to 60#'s. The next two items are more
interesting. The Pro Series Heavy Duty Cutter can handle
wire of up to 200#'s! It features superior Spectra cutting and
even has a safety latch. The largest and best new device from
Braid is their Multi-Plier . This one pretty much does all
the frustrating tasks we have need of, and does it in one tool.
The Multi-Plier can open up light and heavy rings, cut braid and
mono, cut wire, tie hooks, release line...and also has a safety
lock. It even comes with a nylon sheath! It has a soft grip handle
and like the other tools is corrosion resistant.

Evolution Scales! Control, Weigh Release
The
manufacturer of the Lippers above recently came to market with
some new products, that look to be homeruns. First off, they have
an economy version of their Control, Weight and Release tool.
These are available in 15#, 25#, 50# and 100# versions. They also
have a 44# digital! Their 100# tool, besides being a great value,
offers extended reach. It's about 36" in length! It features extra
wide opening steel jaws, a 360 degree rotating shaft for ease of
use. The EconoDigi 44 is a digital scale that's constructed of ABS
impact resistant steel, water resistant, shuts off automatically,
and is powered by 2 3 volt batteries.
