Daiichi Standard Wet Fly Hook (1550) 25 Pack

Description

Uses: Traditional Wet Flies. Bronze, sproat bend, down-eye, standard wire, standard length. This is the traditional "wet fly" hook. Wet flies are time honored, successful, subsurface patterns. These hooks feature a more gradual curve of the wire in the transition from the straight shank to the bottom of the bend. This shape is associated with an early English hook-maker named Sproat and today is still referred to as a sproat bend. Dedicated fly tiers consider this as the proper bend to give wet flies their aesthetic beauty.
