Akita AK 704 Fly Hooks (25)

Akita AK 704 is a barbed fly hook for emerging caddis and Mayfly patterns, including caddis pupae and emergers, as well as gammarus imitations. Its short, strongly curved shank gives dressings a compact, rounded profile. The bronze finish suits natural colour schemes used in both surface and subsurface flies.

Design and use

The up-turned eye and reversed geometry help place the body toward the upper part of the hook. The short shank limits body length, so choose this series for compact pupae, emergers and gammarus rather than elongated patterns. The forged construction supports a clearly defined bend while tying the body and thorax.
