Big, abrasive saltwater flies need a hook that stays sharp and doesn’t flex when pressure comes on. The Umpqua XS415 BN5X Tarpon is a straight-eye, wide-gape hook with an extra-strong wire and a needle point. The BN5X finish is listed as super corrosion-resistant, which matters when the fly lives in a wet box between trips.
In this family, sizes run from 3/0 down to 02. We stock it in #2/0, a practical choice when you want a large profile and a solid bite without moving to the very largest hooks. Sold in 12-packs.
