Abstract

The fish grabbing tool is a device that is designed to grab the side of a fish in situations, such as ice fishing, where the use of a net is inappropriate or cumbersome. The fish grabbing tool positions a first jaw and a second jaw that can be positioned by the head or upper body of the fish. A pull ring is used to operate a grabbing mechanism that secures the first jaw and the second jaw around the fish. The fish grabbing tool comprises a grabbing device, a center post, and a handle.
