Quick take
Fifty size 12 bronze long-shank fly tying hooks made of high carbon steel for tying wet flies and nymphs.
This Tigofly pack holds 50 bronze-finish barbed hooks made from high carbon steel, in a long-shank wet and nymph pattern for fly tying. Sizes run from 4 through 16, so one bag can stock a bench for everything from small nymphs to bigger wet flies. It suits fly tiers who go through plenty of hooks and want a bulk pack.
Best for
