The U555 is a 60-degree jig style hook that features micro barbs on medium wire with a bronze finish. A fantastic choice for jigged nymphs and small streamers in situations where a more traditional barbless jig hook just won’t cut it. This hook is part of Umpqua’s U-series of hooks, offering the serious fly tyer a value-based hook alternative to the current offerings on the market. U-series hooks feature high grade carbon steel, micro barbs for easy penetration and de-barbing.
