This autumn I have spent some time to photograph and add 300+ new hooks to http://flyhooks.org - bringing the total of hooks photographed and measured up to 682! Thanks to everyone that have sent me hooks, and let me know if you got some hooks to share!

Incredible! Eide, what is the smallest hook you have found so far by measurement? Curious since some of the brands don't align completely if a few labeled as 26s or 28s are actually smaller than the TMC 518

Yes, it has taken some time... But, it is very interesting to see what this project is turning out to be!

Mustad 277 #32 - this is small: it fits inside the TMC #32 hook! I don't own one, or have a photo of it, but desperately searching for one! I saw it on a flytying session earlier this year, one of the fellow tiers brought it with him for me to have a look at.

 

Btw: http://flyfisher.org/2016/12/flyhooks-org-update-dohiku-claw-knapek/ - Dohiku, Claw & Knapek are now almost complete when it comes to pictures of all sizes!
