I just opened a pack of Daiichi 2546 #2 saltwater hooks that I bought within the last year or two - found that all twenty hooks when viewed from above have the eye canted to the left a bit and thus don’t line up straight with the shank. Before putting time and materials into these hooks, I’m concerned whether this defect may negatively affect performance of the fly in the water. I’d appreciate input on whether this is a problem. I’d almost always be using a loop knot with these hooks. Thanks for any help that may be out there.
