This Daiichi fly fishing hook has an Aberdeen (round) bend, straight eye 3X long shank and standard wire; Uses: steamers, bass flies, large dry flies, poppers. *Size 1/0 -12 per pack, Size 1 is 15 per pack 2-6 is 20 per pack.
If your looking for a perfect hook to tie that wooly bugger on for your smaller sized buggers, this is it. The Daichi 2460 has the perfect Aberdeen bend and its heavy enough for buggers in the #8 to #12 size. This could also be a great hook if you needed the longer shank for a nymph pattern or small streamer (clouser / Mickey Finn)

Great streamer hook
Love these hooks for articulated flies.

Great proportions
Really good gap and proportions. Just about perfect. Haven’t fished it yet - just tied with it. Re: thinner wire, I could feel it flexing a bit when I was tying bulkhead deceivers with GSP and strong thread tension (mainly when putting the last stack of bucktail on the tip), but I never once actually bent it. I’d trust it with a trout for sure.
