Umpqua U401 Standard Saltwater Hook is a stainless-steel, 1X strong, straight-eye hook with a sproat bend, built for saltwater flies. It pairs with popular patterns such as Deceivers, Clouser Minnows, Charlies, and F-C Sand Shrimps. Designed for saltwater patterns and offshore angling, it offers dependable performance in demanding conditions. This 25-pack replaces Mustad 34007.
As part of the U-Series, these hooks deliver consistent performance at a competitive price. The design uses high-grade carbon steel construction, chemically sharpened points and micro barbs for reliable penetration and easy de-barbing.
