Togen Fly Tying Hooks & Beads Review
Some of my favourite things in life are pleasant surprises, and unbeknownst to me, my 4th day of stillwater fishing this spring of 2011 was to hold a few.
The first was that our destination lake had indeed avoided winterkill – which means that some brutes will be available for fly-rod molestation later this year š ! The second was thatĀ āSeclusion Bayā was empty as expected and there were good numbers of size 14-12 chironomids emerging making for some very good fishing ……. enter the little chiro-character that we call āLittle Boy Blueā.
The “Little Boy Blue” Tied with Togen Hooks & Beads
Little Boy Blue is a prototype chironomid (pattern coming soon) that Iād tied with some new-to-me Togen fly tying hooks & beads that Iād just received. Pleasant surprise number 3 was that despite being very reasonably priced (Iāve found this can often be of negative consequence for fly-tying materials), the Togenās size 14 scud hook and white 5/64ths bead created a delectable-looking chironomid specimen (apparently the fish thought so too) which stood the test of multiple hook-ups and battles with feisty early season trout trying to take my fly on an all expenses tour of the lake. The hook, contrary to other size 14 scud hooks Iāve used, resisted the tendency to open up and kept its shape all day. The beads are super white (also unlike cheaper varieties I have used) and the finish is smooth and durable!
Togens offers many different styles and sizes in both their hooks and beads. They also carry a wide variety of other fly tying material and equipment. All in all, Iām most pleased with both the price and quality of the Togenās product Iāve used, and I guess I can advise Togenās that they have not seen the last of me! If you’re also looking for high quality fly tying materials at reasonable prices then we highly recommend that you visit Togens Fly Shop today!
