Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted January 14, 2010 Root Admin Posted January 14, 2010 I guess these are out-of-production. For those who know hooks, what is the closest substitute?
Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 A hook chart I just looked up shows the Daiichi 1330 as a sub. Also the Mustad 94842. http://stevenojai.tripod.com/hookchart.htm Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.
fishinwrench Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 What size, and how many do you need ? I think I know where there are some 20's and 22's in the 25 packs.
Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 I found some for sale as well looking online.. but they are pricey! Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.
fishinwrench Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 The Orvis 1639/UE is a possible substitute (offered in 18-22). But it is 1X fine wire, unlike the TMC500U which is standard wire.

Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 I was wondering the same thing. Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.
