Daiichi 1189 Mat Black hooks are specially designed for tying traditional dry flies.
With a standard shank and round bend (Round Bend), they have a classic, versatile shape well suited to a wide range of dry fly patterns.
Their matte black finish reduces glare for a subtle, natural presentation on the water’s surface. Their barbless design makes it easier to release fish and is ideal for catch-and-release fishing.
If you have questions about choosing a rod or fly line, or about choosing components for tying flies, please contact us through our website, by phone, or in person at our Ardent Fly Fishing store.
