I saw the cabellas model but I like the longer handle on the 12" berkley lip grip, anyone else use this? I know its more crap to carry but I cut the hell out of my hand Friday night landing that fish so it would make life easier.

More crap to carry is never good. |

In almost 40 years of fishing, I've only been nailed once by a blue. And it happened while the bastage was laying high and dry on the bank of the Canal. I was holding the leader about 6" from its mouth and reaching for pliers with my other hand when it flopped up. That was back in 1982.
Now I grab the suckers behind their head so they can't flop. Sometimes I don't even use pliers.
I once got a deal on those Rapala lip grips, the original ones with the small jaws. Useless on any bass more than 15 pounds. |
