Meadow streams, wooded freestone creeks in high altitude zones, or even just a remote pond, no matter where you are, terrestrials probably live there and fishing them can be a blast. Core has everything that you need to tie those realistic hoppers and crickets in their C1760 Hopper and Terrestrial Hooks. Made with a long curved shank, these hooks provide a realistic profile to terrestrials and even stoneflies, and a small barb and chemically sharpened point work to minimize lost fish. Chasing trout or just panfish, no matter what you’re feeding terrestrials to, these hooks are a great choice. Uses Core’s C1760 Hopper and Terrestrial Hooks are built with a long curved shank that’s ideal for tying grasshoppers, crickets, and stoneflies, but this hook is also a good choice when tying the popular Stimulator or whenever you need a lightweight nymph hook with a curved shank. Comparisons A similar hook is Tiemco’s TMC 2302 Terrestrial and Caddis Nymph Hook. This hook has a very similar bend and can be used for the same types of flies. While these hooks are pretty similar, one difference is that the Core 1760 sizes up to a 4 whereas the Tiemco TMC 2302 ends at a size 6.
