Conventional anglers realized long ago the benefits of fishing a jig hook, and have been using 90° jig hooks for many decades. Jig hooks are relatively new to freshwater fly anglers, although many striped bass anglers have been tying streamers on jig hooks for over a decade. An obvious advantage is the fly rides hook point up, creating a situation where the fly is less apt to snag on the bottom. Also, the fly can be moved up and down in the water column, a jigging action, which can be irresistible to a trout.
