Easy to make and very useful.

A set of ice tongs from ebay
3/4" pipe from my junk pile, and a piece of washing machine drain hose for a grip.
I drove wooden wedges into the end of the pipe to stablize the hook.
The odd one is made with a tooth of a pole cimbing spike welded to a bolt. I found the climbing spike in the weeds where some lineman had dropped it.
