I’ve used the D172 hook for several weeks on both dry fly and wet fly setups. The turned up eye makes it easy to attach flies, and the perfect bend holds securely without breaking. The bronze finish looks great and feels solid. A reliable choice for everyday fishing.

Works well with soft hackles and midges. The standard length fits most fly lines. I appreciate the forged finish and the fact it’s made in Japan. A bit heavier than some other hooks, but it’s durable and performs consistently.

Great for both dry and wet flies. The up eye design is easy to work with, and the hook doesn’t bend or break under normal use. I bought a pack of 25 and have used most of it already. Solid quality.
