Fly Tying Hooks
Sort by:
Every fly starts with the hook. No matter how well a fly is tied, it's only as good as the hook underneath it.
At Kindale Fly Fishing, we stock a wide range of fly tying hooks for trout, grayling, salmon and predator patterns. Our selection includes hooks from Kindale, Fulling Mill and Kamasan, covering everything from dry flies and traditional wet flies to nymphs, jig hooks, grub hooks, streamers and blob hooks.
Different patterns call for different hooks. Fine wire hooks are popular for dry flies, while heavier wire hooks help nymphs and lures get down quickly. We also stock barbed and barbless patterns in a range of sizes, giving you plenty of choice whatever you're tying.
Every hook in our range has been chosen because it's one we'd happily use ourselves. Strong, sharp and dependable, they're designed to give you confidence every time you tighten into a fish.

What hook should I use for Tying flies?
Choosing the correct hook depends on what fly you are wanting to tie.
Dry fly hooks are made from a lighter gauge of wire. This helps keep the hook light weight helping to keep it afloat once the materials have been applied. Use a Dry fly hook for flies you want to fish on the surface of the water or slow the sinking time down to fish sub surface.
Wet Hooks are made from a heavier gauge wire to help them sink quicker. Use a wet hook for nymphs, spiders, Irish lough style flies and chironomids aka Buzzers.
Blob Hooks - Does what it says on the tin. Blob hooks are for blobs. They usually have a wider Gape and this is due to the fritz they are tied with. Fritz can be bulky and hide the point of the hook. Having a wider Gape helps with better hook ups. Check Out our range of Blob Hooks Here
Should I use barbed or barbless hooks?
Both have their place. Barbed hooks can help keep fish pinned during the fight, while barbless hooks are quicker to remove and are often required by fisheries operating catch-and-release rules. Before tying your flies, it's always worth checking the regulations of the water you'll be fishing. If you're unsure which to choose, carrying both barbed and barbless versions of your favourite patterns gives you the best of both worlds.
