The Ahrex FW550 Mini Jig Barbed Hook is a chemically sharpened jig hook with a black nickel finish that is designed by Scandinavian fly fishermen. These hooks are available in sizes 2–14 and are used for modern nymphing in smaller sizes and jig style streamers in larger sizes. The main purpose of these hooks is to tie flies that ride with their hook point up, which is a great feature for Euro Nymphs.
