Daiichi Fly hooks are the finest in the world. Here's why: They
are made of the finest high carbon steel, which is hardened and
tempered to an exacting formula that makes for a long point life
and a very strong hook. Daiichi hooks use a 12-degree constant taper
ground needle point. This eliminates irregularities in shape, assuring
no weak spots, & gives amazing speed of penetration. We also chemically
sharpen our hooks in a special bath that deburs their points. Daiichi
hooks come in multiple finishes that are all evenly and smoothly
applied. Each hook is precision tooled "true" to the exact design
of the eye, bend, gape & barb. Our barbs are an advanced "low profile"
design that results in minimal weakness and less broken hooks and
lost fish. We offer a very wide variety of hook patterns for almost
every fly tyer's needs.
Trusted worldwide since 1925. Eagle Claw is the only fishhook made
in the USA. Eagle Claw also offers a complete line of rods, reels
and terminal tackle products that you can rely on.
Kiene's Fly Shop carries a wide variety of hooks from Gamakatsu.
To most people the most important thing about a fish hook is its
ability to catch fish, and this is of course also the most important
thing for Mustad when designing and developing a hook pattern.
All the above new additions to the Partridge range of hooks were
launched at the British Fly Fair 2005 with great success. Some 50
fly tiers from all over the world experienced tying on these hooks,
and found all variations of applications.
At Targus Fly Company we provide the industries best commercially
tied fly products at very reasonable prices.
Backbone counts. Whether you’re tying a dozen flies a year–or a
million dozen. That’s why we base more than 1,500 Umpqua Feather
patterns on the superior "Umpquality" of Tiemco hooks. They’re perfectly
tempered from Japanese steel. Superbly balanced, for excellent heft
and strength-to-weight ratios, and chemically sharpened, for extra
penetration. Always go with Umpquality, and never settle for less
than Tiemco.
