unHookR - The Fish Hook Remover Designed by a Fisherman, for fishermen!

There aren't a lot of tools out there to remove hooks from a fish without damaging the fish...or the hook. Eric Rauscher, a lifelong fisherman decided it was time to design a hook remover that actually worked, first time, every time.  unHookR was born.

unHookR is simple to use, just hold the fish you've caught in one hand and hold the unHookR in the other hand.  Take the line and hold it in the hand that is holding the unHookR to cause line tension while engaging the hook bend with the slot at the other end of the unHookR.  Then just push the unHookR into the fish’s mouth about 1mm and then roll it to the right or left to pop the hook out.  

Remove the unHookR with the hook held on the slotted end.  

You'll save your fingers and cause less stress to the fish because of the speed with which the hook is removed. unHookR also protects the hook.  Whether it's an expensive jig head, a fly or even a 5/0 bass hook draped in expensive plastics, with unHookR it will be removed BUT not destroyed.  

Consider the damage you've done when using pliers or forceps. This DOES NOT HAPPEN with the unHookR.

It is better than anything out there because it always works. It's simple. It's inexpensive. It's also heavy duty made from #304 stainless steel. It's 100% made in the USA.

Check out the video of unHookR in action from Chuck Pippin. Eric has fished a lot with Chuck in the past and once Chuck saw the unHookR, he was sold. It's on all his boats.
