Ahrex PR378 GB Swim Bait Hooks

Taking inspiration from two very talented fly tiers–Gunnar Brammer and Paul Monaghan–Ahrex’s PR378 GB Swim Bait Hooks revolutionizes the way that we approach tying weedless flies. The PR378 Swim Bait Hooks are truly unique and offer a nice long shank to tie on, while also giving a deep bend that keels your flies and makes them swim hook point up. However, the fun doesn’t stop there as these hooks also have several areas to tie on so that you can add additional weight, rattles, and more. A weedless hook like no other, the PR378 Hooks are ready for anything from extended body Hollow Fleyes, Zonker strip flies, and anything else that you can come up with to target large predatory fish in dicey environments.

Uses

The PR378 Hooks are pretty versatile, but their key feature is that they allow you to tie very weedless flies. These hooks were designed with streamers in mind, but crafty fly tiers looking to think outside of the box have been able to do much more with this hook.

Comparisons

There’s really no substitute for the Ahrex PR378 GB Swim Bait Hooks. In the past, tiers have tried to use worm hooks such as Gamakatsu’s G Lock Worm Hooks, but their tying shank is really just so small that it’s a pain to work with. If you’re looking to tie large weedless flies, the PR378 really is the best option.
