Partridge Hooks – EG Egg Hook
As simple as most egg fly patterns are, they need more than a simple hook. These little flies often target large trout, steelhead and salmon in conditions where the fishing is fighting at the peak. The optional hook is strong, with a wide but shallow bend, and is sharp enough to easily penetrate on subtle, soft takes.
Features:
- Straight ring eye
- Strong wire construction
- Wide gap design
- Black nickel finish

This hook performs well in both still and moving water. The sharp point helps with soft takes, and the black nickel finish resists tarnish. I’ve used it on multiple trout streams and it holds up well.
Michelle Ross –
Good for egg patterns. The wide gap makes it easier to tie on, and the bend doesn’t catch on rocks. Works well in clear water where fish are cautious.
Keith Slater –
Felt like a solid upgrade from my old hooks. The penetration is clean and the hook doesn’t break even after several days of fishing in fast currents.
