Tiemco Hooks

Tiemco is a Japanese company that started in the early 1980’s and has built a reputation of consistent, high-quality hooks. They were one of the first manufacturers to chemically sharpen the points and now is standard throughout the industry. They carry a very broad line of fly fishing hooks with about 46 models to choose from. At the end of the hook designation, you might see a “SP”, this stands for Specialty Point. The SP hooks have a hollow curve point with triangulated edges for easier sharpening.

The hooks also have a slow taper which assists in easier hook sets. An interesting aspect of this hook is the basal end of the point has a swelling that works much like a barb without being a barb. This may be of some advantage in holding hook sets with the barbless hooks. Another designation you may see is “TC” which stands for Tiemco Cut. This is a cut that Tiemco uses on certain wet and streamer flies for enhanced hooking penetration. You can visit their web site at: Tiemco Hooks
