Richard Mackenzie –
Used these hooks for bonefish fishing in the Keys. They held up well under pressure and stayed sharp after several casts. The straight point made it easy to set the hook without slipping.
Claire Wallace –
Strong and reliable. I’ve used them on tarpon and they performed well in both light and heavy strikes. The re-sharpenable feature is a big plus for long-term use.
Michael Churchill –
Good quality for the price. The hook point is sharp and the hook holds firm during fights. A bit heavy for small flies, but perfect for larger species.
