Sert Predator Disgorger Kit

Safely and efficiently unhook sharp-toothed predators with the Sert Predator Disgorger Kit. Specifically curated for the rigours of UK saltwater and freshwater predator angling, this essential kit provides the mechanical leverage and reach needed to remove deeply set hooks cleanly. Whether you are dealing with a deeply hooked pike in a winter drain or unhooking an aggressive conger, bull huss, or tope in the crashing surf, this kit ensures both angler safety and optimal fish welfare.

The kit features heavy-duty, long-reach tools designed to keep your fingers well clear of razor-sharp pike teeth, crushing catfish jaws, and lethal sea hooks. Built from corrosion-treated materials, these disgorgers stand up to harsh saltwater spray and heavy slime without seizing up, making them a permanent fixture in any serious specimen tackle box.

Where to Use This Product

• Deadbaiting & Lure Fishing for Pike: An absolute must-have for pike anglers. When a pike takes a deadbait or engulfs a large treble-hooked lure deeply, these tools let you apply direct, controlled pressure to pop the hooks out safely.

• Shore & Boat Sea Angling: Perfect for unhooking deeply hooked marine predators like huss, rays, and eels that have a tendency to roll and clamp down hard on standard short forceps.

• Night Fishing Sessions: The distinct profile and high-grip handles make these tools easy to locate and operate by headlamp when unhooking lively fish in the dark.

• Catch-and-Release Welfare: Minimizes handling time and reduces stress on the fish, ensuring a fast, clean release back into the water.

Gerrys Pro Tip: When dealing with toothy predators like pike or big sea eels, speed and confidence are everything. Never try to look down the throat of the fish while working close with short pliers. Keep the fish safely pinned on a well-padded unhooking mat, slide the long-reach Sert disgorger down the line to engage the bend of the hook, give it a firm, controlled push and twist to disengage the barb, and lift clear. It keeps the fish in the water faster and keeps your fingers fully intact!

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need a dedicated predator kit instead of standard fishing forceps?

Standard fishing forceps are fantastic for trout, perch, or small sea species, but they lack the structural jaw strength and overall length needed for big predators. When a 20lb pike or a powerful conger closes its mouth, standard forceps will simply flex or bend under the pressure. The Sert Predator Kit features heavy-duty tools that give you solid mechanical leverage to unhook heavy-wire irons safely.

Will these tools rust if used frequently for sea fishing?

The tools are treated with a specialized corrosion-resistant finish designed to handle the elements. However, no steel tool is completely bulletproof against prolonged saltwater exposure. To keep them working smoothly, give them a quick rinse in fresh water and a wipe down with a rag after a sea trip, and apply a drop of light multi-purpose oil to any pivot points before storing them away.

Can this kit be used for smaller species like perch or bass?

While specifically designed with larger, toothier predators in mind, the smaller disgorger tool in the kit can easily be used for medium-sized bass, zander, or perch if they have taken a soft plastic or bait deeply. For tiny species, however, standard fine forceps remain the preferred option.
