It has been years since I tied any flies using Mustad hooks so I no longer remember all of their model numbers.
However, I’m looking for a few of the older Mustad hooks, that may be size 4-8 with a hook shank that is approximately 1 1/2” long (give or take 1/4”), with a turned down eye.
These older Mustad hooks were made from a steel that was easy to bend, and that’s what I want to do with them for the flies that I want to tie. Newer hooks, like the Tiemco hooks that I use today have a much stronger steel and are more difficult, or even impossible to bend without breaking them.
I only need 10-20 of these hooks, but I’d take a full box of up to 100.
PM me here if you have any of these older Mustad hooks that you want to part with.
Thanks, John
