Several great suggestions already. I like the pencil one. May have to try

Until now I have used a pair of surgical forceps. I keep a pair in my tackle
box for removing hooks and they do occasional duty for other things.
I use the same thing only mine lock. I think these are called
hemostats. They are great for small work. I'm always looking for even
smaller ones called mosquitos.
The eraser idea is great. I've been in clients houses trying to pound
