Fish Lip Gripper - wanted
Submitted by Mainey on Tue, 2015-05-05 18:29
Hi,
looking at getting a "Fish Lip Gripper" but what I have seen in some shops were not what I have seen in other fish'os boats
I don't want a huge Gripper, possibly middle of the range size
I've seen the budget priced cheap Grips and they are just that - cheaply made for a low price with lower quality
Question is: is there a Brand that is at least in the middle of the quality range, at a realistic price ??
What brand / model do most guys use ??
Thanks in advance

Berkley
The Berkley lip grips are quite good, i think mine were around 40 - 50 bucks.
Boga grips are the best, but a bit too pricey for most of us.
Tried a cheap set from Ebay, useless, any fish with a bit of weight to it would slip out.
