New for 2026, Ahrex Hooks
I'm very pleased to announce that going forward all my doubles, singles and saltwater flies will be tied exclusively on Ahrex Hooks, in my opinion the best on the market. You’ll see their branding on the website which is a guarantee of quality
They do a hook for every occasion and are exceptionally well made
The main line-up of Ahrex hooks I’ll be using
Ahrex NS122 ,test pattern on wrinkly hands
I’ve been testing them for the past year and am super impressed with the saltwater range, for once no rust after a few trips.
Ahrex SA220 Streamer hook . pattern is called a “Squishy”
Ahrex SA210 Clouser Minnow
The manufacturing of these hooks is extremely consistent making them easier to tie on which is important for replication. For instance, the hook eyes are all the same size, it’s been a bugbear of mine with different manufacturers who don’t put as much care into their products.
Ahrex HR420 doubles
Honestly, there’s no worse feeling than a hook straightening after the effort you put into catch, I speak from personal experience ! Ahrex hooks are designed by folks who fish themselves specifically to withstand the rigours of fly fishing.
Buttery Gold Scottish Sea Trout
I’m really looking forward to the sea trout season which starts here in February. If you have any questions about hooks or anything else please feel free to get in touch. My inner geek loves these things!
