Fish saver. Our breakout product in the fly fishing industry, years ago, we thought: "There's got to be a better way to remove a delicately-tied fly from a hooked fish than the hoisting, clamping, and wrenching process now on display." So we created a simply innovative tool capable of reducing fish mortality by eliminating netting and handling—then named it after our home-base of Ketchum, Idaho. This technique will preserve protective coatings and eliminate air exposure. The Ketchum Release® tool makes low-mortality release easy, plus allows you to retrieve your fly without damage. It even keeps your hands high and dry.
  • The Ketchum Release® is available in three sizes: 
    • Big Bug for hook sizes 6-10
    • Standard for sizes 12-16
    • Midge for sizes 18-22.
