Had problem hooking fish on 18 hooks. These give a good hook hold on a small fly.
Excellent strong hooks for Emerger & Klinkhamers. Great in size 24 for Midges & Aphid imitations. Good sized eyes make them easy to tie on even in smallest sizes. A little more expensive than some other hook brands which resulted in 4 stars rather than 5.
