These hooks are easy to tie and hold well in shrimp patterns. The bend back shape works perfectly for the fly’s action. The matte finish looks professional and doesn’t reflect light in the water.
Stephen Kelly –
I’ve used these for several fishing trips and they’ve held up well under pressure. The point is sharp and the hook doesn’t break easily.

Good quality and consistent in shape. A bit harder to tie than standard hooks, but the performance is worth it for shrimp fishing.
