Bass Pro Shop Pliers $9

[cjd]

OK I know I am setting my self up here, but has anyone else seen these BPS pliers for $9?
From what I read here, I will have to go through 30 pair before I match the price of a Man's set of pliers

I have always used needlenose (god this is so humiliating) but for $9, I just got a pair.

Not bad at all.



EDIT

Sorry I thought i was in the fishing forum. feel freee to move Mods

I only buy cheap pliers. I go through a pair every couple of seasons but at around $10 it's hard to beat and I don't have to worry about losing them.

I have the Donmars. They were 100 ish dollars when I bought and are on their 4th season now. They are nice. I also like the old school Manleys and same style Shimanos for 30 bucks.

I used the Bass Pro Shops or Cabelas cheap pliers for years. In 2001, my brother gave me a pair of titanium pliers for a Christmas present. They were great. On our first trip to Grand Isle, we were unhooking a redfish, when the dandy new titanium pliers slipped off my buddy's wrist. I learned that titanium pliers sink about as fast as cheap stainless pliers... I use a Cabela's stainless dehooker and their pliers now, because they had the best price.
