HOOKS
We have been very choosy, offering only good quality materials that have been researchec and tested.
When Cathy started tying, her instructor, Nick Ludlow of Cross Currents, started her out on Daiichi hooks. She loves the mini barb -- it's small size is justified by the overall strength of the hook. She's never had a sang, weak hook, or an eye that's off-kilter
When we researched who was on the PRO Staff at Daiichi, we found names we new and trusted -- Denny Rickards, Bruce Staples, John Gierach, Steve Probasco, Ed Engle, Skip Morris, Boyd Pfieffer, Charlie Meck . . . the list goes on. And as the saying goes, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
FLY TYER'S GUIDE
A cross-reference for other hook brands (Dai-Riki, Mustad, Orvis, Eagle Claw, Partridge, Tiemco)
Daiichi hooks are gaining in popularity and so are flies tied on Daiichi hooks, here are a few reasons why:
• High carbon steel for superb strength and long point life. If you bend one of these hooks, and it happens to be the only fly pattern you have that's catching fish, you can actually bend the hook back into place and continue catching fish for the rest of the day.
