I like this guy's lip gripper. Its freakin flat and compact!That lip gripper is sick. Ive been looking online for that same one or something similar and cant seem to find one.

Can anyone shed some light on what brand it might be, or where they can be found?

I think I found that grip. It's called the dress grasper landing grip. Out of Japan. Looks pretty nice.

I was just lookin at that one.

I think Ill pass, especially seeing as they run almost $200, same as most identical Japanese grippers. I just ordered the Berkley pistol shaped grips. $160 less...

Cool video.. i hate the way he skids them across the sand like that though X(

Does sliding them like that hurt the fish? I guess it would take their slime coating off, wouldnt it?
