About Us
The Berkley story is deeply rooted in the idea of the American Dream. It's about hard work, struggle, and tough times. And it's about building partnerships to accomplish goals. Still, the story of Berkley is much more than the story of Berkley Bedell. It's also the story of dedicated co-workers and loyal customers, who were equally willing to take risks.
It all began in Spirit Lake, Iowa, in June of 1937, when 16-year old Berkley Bedell took 50 USD from his paper route earnings to start a business selling his hand-tied flies to fishing tackle shops and vacationing anglers. In his upstairs bedroom, with hair clipped from the family dog, Stubby, and feathers from the backyard chickens, young Berkley crafted flies to entice local bluegill and bass from their underwater cover. The Berkley Fly Co. was founded.
By the time Berk graduated from high school in 1939, he was employing several area girls who made flies, silkworm gut, and cable wire leaders in their homes. The business soon outgrew Berk's parent's basement and living room. He expanded to the second floor of the local grocery store, using a tub filled with ice and a fan for air conditioning.
After attending the state university and serving in the Army Air Corps, Berk returned to Spirit Lake in 1945 to start Berkley and Company. The business focus was on its cable wire leaders. One evening, while reading Popular Science, Berk learned about a Connecticut company that was producing nylon-covered cable for sailboat rigging. After visiting their plant, he began to work on nylon-coated wire for use in fishing leaders. production began in Spirit Lake. Shortly after this, the distinctive Berkley heart logo was designed with the slogan "nylon leader with a heart of stainless steel."
Berk next became interested in extruding nylon monofilament fishing line. At that time, all nylon came from DuPont. After receiving a license from DuPont, Berk returned to Spirit Lake to begin work developing equipment to produce nylon. The initial extrusion equipment consisted of reclaimed washing machine wringers, bicycle wheels, and other homespun materials. Soon Berkley was marketing private brand mono as well as Dew Flex monofilament. Ongoing experimentation would soon yield the company's breakthrough innovation - Trilene.
In 1959, Berkley introduced Trilene at about the same time DuPont introduced Stren. To help introduce the new line, Berk sent out thousands of sample spools of line and asked store owners to have their best fisherman try it on a spinning reel. Fishermen loved the line and it began the successful launch of Berkley Trilene.
The next four decades were a time of great growth for the company. In the 1960's Berkley entered into the rod business, which lead to international expansion in the 1970's. Soft plastic baits made an appearance in the 1980's. The 1990's through today have seen significant technology improvements in all of the Berkley products. From the beginning, Berkley has committed significant resources to research and development - a continuing strategy that has resulted in countless product innovations, including Berkley Trilene, the Lightning Rod, PowerBait, FireLine, and more recently Gulp!? and Gulp! Alive.

They also like the trigger grip, which allows them to exert a lot of force to get hooks.

In the freshwater category, I have used mine extensively ice fishing and open water fishing for Northern Pike and after regretting NOT bringing it along on a few fishing trips, I never leave home without it after that. Pike, as many anglers know, have tough jaws and sharp slicing teeth that can rival a shark for the damage they can do to hands and fingers. In my opinion this hook remover is ideal for those toothy critters in freshwater fisheries too. Not to mention using it on any fish you need to take the hook out of. Because of the gripping power on the hook, you can exert a LOT of force to get hooks out of bony or very tough tissue and cartilage. And this one has had plenty of workout removing hooks from large king salmon, sockeye and silver salmon all summer long.
When this BERKLEY SS version turned up on Amazon for under $6 it was a no brainer to get this rust resistant tool for the saltwater boat and permanently transfer my "antique" hook remover to my freshwater fishing tackle box. In fact on my next Amazon order I'll add another one of these to my shopping list for a good friend who is a saltwater charter boat captain as a special "tip" on my next trip with him.
P.S. I am reviewing the durability and performance of the BERKLEY brand product. There are other imitators you will see on the market, however I do not speak for those brands and their capabilities. BERKLEY has proven itself and for the price why gamble and take a chance with any other?

tl;dr this thing is so much stronger than you would ever imagine that it literally makes you wonder if someone made a mistake and used way too thick or strong of metal. None of what I'm saying is a joke, get one and be surprised.
A good value for the price paid, and Berkley did a good job on quality control. Very impressed!
