There's no question the 6" VS pliers will cut hooks, nevermind the 7". Probably not the ideal task for them, but just ask the Ironman about the 4/0 treble that got stuck in his hand. They stayed in service till this winter after lopping thru that hook mid-season. Mike only uses mono though which obviously doesn't need the same edge braid does.
I think he got at least 2 seasons out of those jaws plus winter time rigging.
