Fill Your Live Well Faster

Sabiki rigs catch bait fast, but removing each bait fish by hand is slow and tangles the rig. The R&R Small Dehooker changes the workflow. Swing the bait over the livewell, engage the dehooker head, pop the hook, and the bait drops in. No hand contact needed.

The R-style head is specifically shaped to keep your sabiki leader in position while releasing the bait. This prevents tangles and keeps the rig fishing-ready between casts. The 7 inch length is perfect for one-hand operation at the gunwale.

R-Style Head Design

Unlike the S-style head on the larger version, the R-style head keeps the sabiki line in place while releasing the bait fish. This prevents the rig from tangling and lets you get back in the water faster.

Floating Wooden Handle

Same buoyant wooden handle as the large version. Drop it overboard and it floats. The natural wood provides a comfortable, non-slip grip even with wet bait-covered hands.

Compact 7 Inch Size

The shorter length is proportioned for small bait fish work. Easy to operate with one hand while the other manages the rod. Stores in any tackle bag or pocket without bulk.

How to Use the R&R Small Dehooker with Sabiki Rigs

1. Reel your sabiki rig to the rod tip with bait attached

2. Swing the bait over your livewell or bait bucket

3. Engage the R-style dehooker head on the hook

4. Push or twist to pop the bait free

5. The fish drops into the livewell cleanly

6. Repeat for each bait on the rig without tangling

What is the difference between the small and large dehooker? +
This small version at 7 inches with an R-style head is for bait fish and sabiki rigs. The R&R Large Dehooker at 13 inches with an S-style head is for game fish. The head designs are optimized for their intended use.
Will this work with sabiki rigs? +
That is its primary purpose. The R-style head keeps the sabiki leader in position while popping each bait fish free. Speeds up bait catching significantly.
Does the handle float? +
Yes. The wooden handle is naturally buoyant and floats back to the surface if dropped overboard.
Can I use this on game fish? +
It works on very small game fish, but the 7 inch length limits its reach. For game fish, use the R&R Large Dehooker with its 13 inch length and S-style head.
What other tools go well with this? +
The R&R Fishing Pliers for general tasks and the Large Dehooker for game fish. That trio covers bait catching through final release.
How do I remove bait from a sabiki rig quickly? +
Swing the bait over your livewell, engage the R-style head on the hook, twist or push to pop the bait free, and the fish drops into the well. No hand contact with the bait needed. Read about live bait rigging for next steps.
