Renzetti Hook Retainer Material Clip is a dual-function fly tying tool designed for long streamers and smaller flies. Created by Andy Renzetti, Blane Chocklett and Nick Groves, the clip securely holds a secondary hook when tying longer flies and doubles as a material clip for smaller patterns.
Designed to support articulated shanks and spines, the hook retainer keeps the secondary hook in position during wraps, helping maintain alignment and tension. In addition to securing hooks, it acts as a material clip that grips threads, chenille, and other building materials as you work, reducing slipping and rework. The compact design minimizes bench clutter while speeding up transitions between large streamers and diminutive patterns.
