Kumoto K2488 Heavy Emerger Hook

K2488 review

I find these hooks are really good for the price! They differ from the Tiemco hook only a little (which is more expensive). The main difference is the tip of the hook is more curved kinda like an Eagle Claw hook; which makes putting a bead on the hook a little bit more difficult. Otherwise, nice hook.

Great value

Came across this brand several months ago. Love the price but also that after a few hundred flies only found one mis shaped hook. The big names should do that well but don't!

Because it is mid winter I have not used this hook yet, however I ordered it because I wanted a stronger emerger hook for the larger trout I fish for. Testing the strength in my vice and by the looks of the gauge of the wire, I'm confident it should perform as hoped.
