Designed for tying egg flies when targeting large salmon and steelhead, the U501 has an extremely short shank with a straight eye. Built on beefy 2X strong wire, this hook won’t give out on you when hooked up to a big fish fresh from the ocean.
This hook is part of Umpqua’s U-series of hooks, offering the serious fly tyer a value-based hook alternative to the current offerings on the market. U-series hooks feature high grade carbon steel, micro barbs for easy penetration and de-barbing, along with a logical numbering system for hook use identification.
