I mean, it's not a technical marvel - these types of hook disgorgers have been around in various forms and designs for 100 years - but it is more refined and it's super light weight and the way it goes down the line to the hook is pretty awesome.So, I waited for it to go on sale.20 years later, it's still $20. Trust me, that's a better value now than it was 20 years ago when you could buy a dozen flies for $10.All that said, I wanted it for unhooking bluegill, smaller bass and trout - so I bought the medium. It looks a little small to me, but I haven't used it yet. Hopefully it will work ok up to a 2/0 hook. I'll use it mostly on panfish and trout anyway, so it should be fine.Kudos to the manufacturer and owners for making something that has been around so long and hasn't gone UP a dime in 20 years. I doubt anything else in fishing can claim that - and man, what a profit you guys must have made from the early adopters if you're still selling them at 20 bucks a pop! :) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Learn how use it and its golden *by T***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 15, 2018* This thing works like a champ. I was using it wrong at first, I thought it was just push the hook down and it'd come out, I was missing the twist at the end. Once I figured that out it was great, fish come off with no problem, and no trauma.The product also says it comes with a warranty, it seems solid so I don't think I'll need it, but its nice to have. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ketchum Release tool Big Bug *by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2016* For size 12 dry flies this the size to have or any larger flies. I am a fishing guide and work over 100 days a year plus fish every day off I can. I always have the original and the big bug with me. I do wish they would make a model with a stainless steel shaft. I have never broken one on a fish but have broken a pile of them when I lean up against the boat . This is a must have tool if you care about the fish. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/21088051-lamsonketchum-release-hook-extractor-big-bug-larger-fly-patterns](https://www.desertcart.at/products/21088051-lamsonketchum-release-hook-extractor-big-bug-larger-fly-patterns) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
