Hooks

Hook Variations

Hooks are the foundation of every fly and we have hooks in a variety of weights and lengths enabling you to tie multiple variations for every different type of fly.

  • DRY FLY hooks: made of wire that is light in weight so the flies will float.
  • NYMPH & STREAMER hooks are heavier (2X or 3X the weight).

Some streamer hooks used to make classic Rangeley style streamers are as long as 8 or 9x. Most hooks have straight shanks, but some patterns call for curved shanks as in the realistic nymph flies. There are long and slightly curved hooks to make stonefly and Stimulator patterns and long drooping shanks for the Klinkhamer and other emergers.  There are also special barbless hooks designed to hold fish without the use of the traditional barb.

We carry hooks from the following manufacturers

  • Mustad
  • Daiichi
  • Lightning Strike
  • Partridge
  • HMH
  • Firehole

Here is a chart that compares  hooks of the different manufactures.
