This 1X extra fine wire hook for a delicate drop shot presentation when you nose hook the bait or as attached to tiny lures. Round bend wide gape for great hooking ability and presentation. Up-turned eye makes it perfect for the Snell knot and suspended presentation. This is truly a must-have hook for freshwater anglers, who expect the best from a hook. Coated with Mustad´s Black Nickel that is 4 times as corrosion resistant as traditional Black Nickel finish.

Thank you. I am 52, have 3 kids and run an ad agency. I have been fishing in one form or another all my life. First on the rivers, canals and lakes of my birthplace in England. Then, on moving to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1995, I began fishing the Pacific for everything from Dungeness crab, Rock Fish, Ling Cod and Halibut to Tuna when we take off on a real adventure. I have also travelled a lot and I take the chance to fish anywhere. From Asia and Indonesia to Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean.
Then. a few years ago, I began trout fishing on a fly rod on trips to Idaho and Montana. And I got that "born again" feeling. It's not a bait / lure snobby thing. I just don't care if I catch anything, I just feel happy to be out there. That said, fly fishing is now an obsession.
To your hooks. I prefer to buy my tied flies on your hooks. And when all my kids have flown, I will no doubt start tying. But the reason for this purchase is down to my old mate chucking eggs into the North Fork of the Yuba a few weeks back from his spinning reel. I looked into doing so on my fly rod for mostly catch and release and that's what brought me here.
