Daiichi 1760 – 2X Heavy Curved Nymph Hook
The Daiichi 1760 2X Heavy Curved Nymph Hook is one of the very best nymph hooks ever designed. It’s a super strong hook with a slight round bend. The hooks 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.

I’ve used this hook on several steelhead runs and it holds up well under pressure. The curved shank and strong point make it easy to set the hook without breaking. The bronze finish looks great in the water and the hook doesn’t bend easily even after repeated use.
Madeleine Dyer –
Great for large trout and salmon. The 2X-heavy wire gives it extra strength, and the down-eye makes it easy to tie on. I’ve used it in cold water conditions and it performs consistently.
David Randall –
Solid hook with a clean point. The round bend helps with hooking fish in tight spaces. A bit heavy for small nymphs, but perfect for larger species like steelhead.
