Umpqua XC400BL-BN Hook

Umpqua’s “Super Jig” hook, the XC400BL-BN features a 60-degree vertical eye bend combined with a carefully curated wide gap to optimize hooking ability. Designed for tyers seeking the perfect hook for a wide variety of jig-style tactical nymphs, the XC400BL-BN pairs well with standard tungsten slotted beads, but it also works well with Umpqua’s Jig Bomb beads when you want to maximize the available shank length of your hook.

Blowtorch Jighead Nymph Tied by Devin Olsen Tag nymphs are certainly not new to fly fishing. I was first introduced to them when I traveled to fish in the Oceania Fly Fishing Games in Tasmania back in 2007. OUR GUIDE showed us a few dry flies and a couple of nymphs. One of them was a tag nymph with a peacock body and a soft hackle.

Euro Nymph Hooks - Fly tying Hooks

The all new XC210 was designed specifically for tyers and anglers wanting a better hook for perdigon style flies or for oversized bead flies. It features a downturned eye to roll the bead downwards to the eye, exposing more of the hook shank which gives oversized beaded flies more realistic proportions. The mega gap allows the hook point to find the fish regardless of what you tie onto the shank.
