Quick take
Assortment of barbless fly hooks in standard sizes for dry, wet and nymph flies.
This is an assortment of barbless jig-style fly hooks with a round bend and a black nickel finish, cut from high carbon steel. The sizes run from #8 to #18, which covers dry flies, wet flies and nymphs. Barbless points suit anglers who practice catch and release and tie their own flies.
Best for
- Fly tiers building a variety of patterns
- Trout and panfish fly fishing in streams
- Catch-and-release angling where barbless hooks are preferred
Skip if
- You need hooks larger than size 8
- You fish exclusively one pattern type
Strengths
- Barbless design prevents deep hooking and reduces injury to fish
- High carbon steel is strong yet thin for clean penetration
- Chemically sharpened points require less force to set than standard hooks
- Assorted sizes let one package supply multiple fly patterns
Trade-offs
- Barbless design means fish hook less securely after setting
- Jig eye design limits some traditional fly tying applications
- 100 pieces provides limited supply for heavy fly fishing use

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
