There is a company called Hiro who produce for coarse and sea angling but have sizes that can suit flies for game fishing available in assorted colours.

Drennan used to do a couple of ranges, uv dropgape nymph and uv rainbow trads, the packs were mixed colours, gold,silver, blue and red. ( there were some loose ones on ebay yesterday ! ) You can also get "Charles Jardine's" red bloodworm hooks, a heavy u/e midge hook. If none of the above is succesful try a can of car spray, suspend the hooks on a "washing line" of monofil, spray lightly, allow to dry. That way you can have your choice of hook.
