There are many different tools that I use when fishing and they vary depending on the different fisheries that I participate in . For instance when Fishing in the Gulf of Mexico, I like to have a “Boga” Grip. When Salmon Fishing I like to have a really good pair of pliers, and when fly fishing I always have a pair of forceps. There is one tool though, that I take with me no matter what the fishery. The Boomerang Snip is an essential part of my fishing equipment, every time I head out.
It has a built in 36” retractable cord that is connected to a carabiner which can be hooked to you waders, life vest or any convenient place you can imagine. I have one attached to all my waders, life vests , fishing vests and other places. It is one tool that once you use it you always want one with you.
Before I discovered the Boomerang Snip, I was always used my teeth to cut line. Even after using the Snip for a few months I would still find myself reaching towards my mouth with loose line, and then reminding myself to use the Snip. Now, I instinctively reach for my snip every time and if it is missing I feel like a piece of me is missing.
36” retractable grade type II braided nylon fiber cord
Integrated safety feature locks the blade close when not in use
cuts 50 lb braided line, floor line and mono line clean and smooth every time
420 Stainless Steel cutters are corrosion resistant
Easily attaches anywhere with the included carabiner
The Boomerang snip comes in the following configurations:
Original
The original and still the best seller. Compact blades are great for cutting all line types up to 50lb braid.
Original with LED light
Same as the original but with a built in LED light for low light conditions
Long Snip
Originally designed for Fly Fishermen this snip have longer blades that can fit into reel spools and other tight places. This is my personal favorite snip
Long Snip with Cheaters
New this year is the Long Snip with a cheater magnifying glass. The engineers at Boomerang did an outstanding job incorporating a magnifying glass into the snip. I have to tell you that I have used this several ties ant it is a game changer when tying small flies on to your line.
Super Snip
The Swiss army knife of snips! The super snip features the long blade design, with an LED UV light that is great for low light conditions and for charging up glow jigs. It also features a jig eye buster on the handle. This is an excellent tool for ice fishing!
No matter which Snip you choose, I am sure you will find it to be an essential tool in your fishing arsenal!
