Hook Specifications

[Eddie O'Neill]

New to Fly tying.
I'm struggling a bit identifying the types of hooks I need for different flies. Up to know have been using Kamasan hooks of different types. Is there such a thing as a chart from this manufacturer that outlines specs for each hook type.

I have a hook chart from Partridge in the loft somewhere. If I can find it it is your if you want it. It is quite handy as the hooks are printed actual size as well.

Can google the type of hook and it will tell you what it is eg B110 - Grubber. B100 - trout shrimp buzzer. B170 - trout medium traditional and so on.

Greenock, Excellent chart, just the kind of thing I was looking for.

Maharg, if you find the Partridge chart that would be great, something else to put on the spare bedroom wall, the wife will be pleased.
