Now and again, there is a fly fishing accessory that makes your life smoother, streamlined, and overall more efficient when spending time on the water. For me, items like the Big Nippa from Rising or Montana River Lanyards come to mind. Two great tools that don't break the bank and are indispensable for an anglers day on the water.
Today we introduce another accessory that meets the criteria above—The Regulator Ergo Hemo from Scientific Angler. The Regulator Ergo Hemo is one of the most well thought out and well-designed sets of hemostats I - and you - have ever come across.
This pair of hemostats comes equipped with an angled head for exceptional visibility and reach. The smooth jaws are perfect out of the box, especially for pinching barbs. The razor-sharp serrated scissors are also ideal for holding onto multiple layers of materials and will not slip or fold fabric compared to polished edge scissors. Too often have I come across a pair of hemostats that were in my mind-designed for a baby human, Or even worse, not designed to be used with only one hand. Because let's be honest, when hemostats are required for hook removal, our right hand has a net in it most of the time. That is why the ergonomically spaced foam grips are the most critical design factor for me. The foam grips found on the Regulator Ergo Hemostats have been specially designed for the human hand. The Regulator hemostats were designed for comfortable work in one hand while also providing more control when compared to any other hemostat on the market. This tool also comes with a killer knot tension tool that allows you to know the tension of your knots before you fish so you can reduce the phrase."He broke me off." And, if this happens, you can use the knot tension tool, which doubles as a bottle opener.
Fitting, is it not?
