Freshwater Hooks

Fly Hooks
Mustad has more than 100 years of fly hook experience. Many patterns still retained date back half a century. In spite of this long experience, Mustad's processes and technology have been continuously renewed and refined. The study of insects is fundamental in modern fly fishing, and is therefore an all important criteria in fly hook design. Mustad has combined entomology and hook making into a totally new approach to fly hooks. Hooks are designed to meet specific properties of the insect's anatomy without compromising presentation and action in fishing. Together with many old favorites, we proudly present our 80,000 range which comprises hooks for imitation fly tying and salmon fly hooks.
