Haczyki muchowe Partridge K10 Yorkshire Fly Body (25)
Special dry fly hook developed with Peter MacKenzie-Philips in the 1970s.
Bronze finish.
Peter MacKenzie-Philips started his fly fishing business on the success of the Yorkshire Fly Body hooks. They captured the imagination of the fly tyers throughout the world and gave Peter a boost in 1973. Slowly they lost their initial impact and it was not until they were slightly redesigned in 1991 that they became somewhat popular again. The
redesign incorporated a larger hook which made it easier to hook and hold a fish. The Fly Body hooks are best used for upwinged dry flies or for hooked patterns.
The Yorkshire Fly Body hook will enable you to tie better balanced dry flies, with a better chance of hiding the hook. Dressing flies on Fly Body hooks is a two stage
operation. Put the hook in the vice with the eye to the left. Start the thread on the point of the body, and tie in the tails and body materials. Complete the body, working to the
left, until the top of the shank is reached, tie a half-hitch and then take the hook out of the vice. Put the hook into the vice with the eye pointing to the right, and complete the fly in
the normal way.
