Default Spiders on Kamasan
I've just recieved these kamasan B525's from Phil at fly tying boutique (at a great price and great service) and they're spot on for tying spiders, a really nice looking hook. Tied these three spiders up on them tonight.

Waterhen bloa

Dark snipe and hot orange (the pearsalls hot orange is sublime)

Snipe bloa

all on size 14.

Nice tying Mark I got some hooks from Phil recently which are very similar in style but were listed as North country hooks and are made by Dahichi (spelling)

Yes I like those. A forum member once sent me some MB spiders which were tied on something very similar.....and they certainly looked the part. I wonder if that profile is available in bronze wire so the translucency of the silk can be showed off to best effect?
