That is a deadly looking bug! Excellent tutorial as well.

Not familiar with those hooks..... they look very long for being a #12. Would be nice to have the extra room to play with body ties.

Doug I seen that the 200R were straight also but as you can see the ones I have are bent down. They may have stopped making the ones I have? I was hoping they would have more of a green look to them than they have.

Here are some pics of the hooks I have. I really like the 200R size 12's, hope they get more of them in.

Here is the #12 compared to a #10. Got to remember that the size 12 hook is only 3/4'' long. In the pics the flies look a lot bigger than they are.
