The Daiichi 1730hook was specifically designed to enhance the natural appearanceof stonefly nymph patterns. In older fly tying recipes, tierswould bend the hook shank of a typical 3X-long hook down, that way theflyexhibited a bent body more closely resembling the actual nymphs which bend between the thorax and abdomen when they free swim.
