Phefop - fishing priest (fish club)

A fishing priest, also called a fish club, is a small but essential tool in the kit of an angler who catches fish to keep. It is used to humanely and quickly dispatch a caught fish right after landing it, which matters for both practical and ethical reasons.

Construction and material

The tool is made of solid aluminum alloy, which makes it sturdy and resistant to mechanical damage with regular use by the water. The compact 18 cm length and 24 mm diameter mean the club easily fits in a fishing bag or vest pocket.

Handle and ease of use

The EVA foam-covered handle provides a secure, non-slip grip even in wet conditions, on a riverbank or from a kayak. The tool's weight of about 124 grams allows a precise, controlled strike, minimizing the risk of accidental injury during use.

Use

The fishing priest works well when fishing from the shore, from a boat and from a kayak, especially when catching larger fish to keep. It is a practical, compact tool that should be part of the kit of every angler who cares about a quick and humane end to the catch.
