Jig Fly Hooks – A Must-Have for Modern Fly Tyers

Jig fly hooks have become some of the most popular and widely used hooks for tying fishing flies. In recent years, jig nymphs have proven to be among the most effective patterns in modern fly fishing, earning a permanent place in the fly boxes of countless anglers.

Barbless jig hooks are now considered standard, as more and more fisheries require their use, and they’re also a competition requirement in many fly fishing events. However, in our online tackle shop, you’ll also find barbed jig hooks from quality Japanese brands such as Gamakatsu, offering excellent hooking performance where barbs are permitted.

These jig hooks are designed to be used with slotted tungsten beads, a crucial fly tying material for proper balance and hook orientation. The slotted design allows the bead to sit correctly on the hook, ensuring that the fly rides hook point up, helping to reduce snagging on rocks and other underwater obstacles.

21st-century fly fishing is largely dominated by flies tied on jig hooks – from standard straight-shank jigs to wide gape patterns (such as the popular “Wide” style favoured by competition anglers). These hooks are perfect for tying deadly nymphs for trout, grayling, and other species.

By combining the right jig hook with a tungsten slotted bead, you can tie highly effective fly patterns that get down fast and stay in the strike zone longer. It’s worth having a variety of hook sizes on hand – larger jig hooks also work brilliantly for streamer patterns targeting bigger fish.
