AFTCO Snooter

The AFTCO Snooter is the go-to billfish control and release tool for serious offshore anglers. Engineered to safely manage billfish boatside during the critical final moments of the fight, the Snooter gives the crew full control — protecting both the fish and the team. The included hook removal pin makes catch-and-release fast, clean, and safe.

• Controls billfish safely boatside — prevents fish from hitting the boat or jumping on the wireman
• Stainless steel wire loop slips over the bill for a secure, non-damaging hold
• Foam-grip black handle for a secure, comfortable grip in wet conditions
• Includes separate hook removal pin for fast, clean dehooking
• Aids in reviving fish after hook removal for a healthy, successful release
• Built to AFTCO's offshore-grade standards — corrosion-resistant materials throughout
• Essential gear for marlin, sailfish, and swordfish crews
