The heavy wire gives extra weight to get the fly down to proper fishing depth and for great holding power. The limerick bend is the traditional bend of choice for salmon fishers around the globe because hooked fish generally do not escape. The gape of this hook is wider than normal for extra bite.

The hooks are made of the finest high-carbon steel, which is hardened and tempered to an exacting formula that makes for a long point life and a very strong hook. Daiichi hooks use a 12-degree constant taper ground needle point. This eliminates irregularities in shape, assuring no weak spots, and gives amazing speed of penetration.
