The JMC DR45BL is a barbless hook made in France, a strong-iron version of the popular DR40BL. Its standard shank and re-entrant point ensure optimum penetration and excellent fish holding. Stronger, it is ideal for nymphing with light to medium-heavy imitations, dry fishing and sight nymphing, especially when searching for big fish. Its discreet black finish completes a versatile and reliable hook, perfectly suited to demanding situations.
