Comparisons

Long shank hooks should be a staple on everyone’s tying desk, and a hook that can be compared to the Kona BSS Barbless Streamer Stonefly Hook is Tiemco’s TMC 5262 Heavy Nymph and Streamer Hook. This hook is similar in that it provides a long tying platform and is great for streamers and nymphs, but it is 2x strong and comes in a wider range of sizes. With a little extra strength and more size options, the TMC 5262 is a bit more versatile. While both of these hooks can be used for similar purposes, it’s worth bumping into the TMC 5262 should you be after trophy-sized fish.
