The Core C1650 is a hook specially designed for tube-mounted flies, featuring a short shank, solid iron and wide hook gap. This combination ensures excellent fish holding and is particularly suited to withstand the stresses of large, aggressive fish. The black nickel finish offers not only superior corrosion resistance but also enhanced underwater discretion, which is essential if you don't want to spook fish. Each hook is chemically sharpened with a small barb, guaranteeing rapid penetration and a secure hold, which is crucial when fishing with tube-mounted flies, often used to target specific species in fresh or salt water. Available in packs of 25, the Core C1650 is an ideal choice for anglers looking for a reliable and effective hook for their tube fly rigs.
