Great hook for tying patterns where you want a solid hook capable of holding big fish. Looks a bit silly having a size 16 tied nymph on a size 12 hook... but the results are worth it. Kind of like how a 'low-water salmon pattern' looks strange- but is nevertheless effective.

Great hook, good value
The smaller sizes are fantastic for nymphs and dries and the size 12 is suitable for blobs and boobies. Love the black nickel finish - no flash, more stealth.
