The Daiichi 2546 Saltwater Fly Hook aka O'Shaughnessy Hook is a traditional, time honoured design that has survived from the days of hand-made hooks with little change. The distinctive bend, straight eye, short shank, and flat forging are key elements that combine to form this efficient fishing tool. Modified for saltwater fishing these hooks are made of stainless steel. This standard hook is useful for all kinds of fishing situations, especially in bottom searching steelhead flies. Daiichi does not chemically sharpen these hooks because the process does not work favourably with this alloy. These hooks have ground needle points. They will not rust in salt or brackish waters.
