Daiichi Standard Dry Fly Hook 1180

The Daiichi 1180 is a round wire hook that is non-forged. The mini-barb is an impressively small barb that is nearly invisible to the naked eye. This minute barb will hold fish but also allows easy hook-ups, and they are easily removed. Anglers who "pinch down" their barbs prefer these hooks because they can easily pinch them down for catch-and-release.
