A few GH inspired Ft's, along with a rogue Kinermony Killer/Tay FT! Chartreuse front hackle and few hairs of the same colour in the bucktail mixed wing. First hook flies I've tied for a while. Maybe they should be called Wild GH's? BnC

MK,
they are tied on the new Mashama Salmo hooks and Salars, very little between them in style but a lot in price!

Do these Mashama hooks feel as strong as salars and have you tried the tube doubles? The wire is a finer gauge than the Salar's, so but they feel strong enough. The size 6 salmo appears to be smaller than the size 7 salar, and that is the biggest size available at the moment. I haven't tied the tube doubles but I am sure they wil be very similar to the equivalent salars They are on a two for one offer at the moment mashamahooks.com , an excellent deal BnC
