I use the gerber fisherman multitool and have loved it for the few years I've had it, but am looking for an additional set of pliers as a back-up or for the times I have someone with me. I would highly recommend a pair with either floating ability or with a lanyard that is retractable. I avoid coil-type lanyards since they seem to tangle on everything. Also, corrosion resistance is not the same as corrosion proof, and due to my penchant for fishing in rough water/rain for fish that seem to throw water everywhere, I wouldn't buy a tool that has a chance of rusting.
Your style of fishing may differ, but I would compare the models and choose a tool that provides insurance against dropping it, has a corrosion proof material, and would be easy to access/use for the fish you chase.
