Whether you’re working the first beat of the day or getting ready for an afternoon hatch of sulphurs, Hanak’s Competition 100BL Hooks tackle all of your dry fly action and feature a barbless construction for quick and safe releases. Made out of a fine hi-carbon wire with a black nickel finish and extra long chemically sharpened needle point, the 100BL Hooks are durable and ultra sticky to give confidence from the time you hook a fish all the way until you bring it to hand. The Competition 100BL Hooks range in sizes from a 10 down to a 20, so you can look to it to match most hatches you encounter. Like all Hanak hooks, the 100BL Hooks are super sharp and a reliable choice everywhere you bring them. Uses With a light wire construction, the 100BL Hooks are perfect for all of your dry fly tying. However, they’re also a great choice whenever you need a lightweight emerger or soft hackle that sits in the upper third of the water. Comparisons The Tiemco TMC100BL Standard Barbless Dry Fly Hooks are quite similar to Hanak’s 100BL Hooks. Both of these options are made from a light wire with a barbless construction, making them an equally great choice for tying dry flies and lightweight emergers. However, one big difference between the two is that Hanak’s 100BL Hooks have a black nickel finish and Tiemco’s TMC100BL Hooks are bronze, so if you want a little more stealth in your presentation, Hanak’s option will serve you better. Other than that, these are two excellent dry fly hooks that you can fish with confidence.
