What's in your vise?

What hook is that?

Firehole 419. Bought a couple packs a few years ago and haven't been tying as much trout stuff lately so still had some lying around.

Others I've found that look similar:
Kona BDF: https://flyfishsd.com/products/kona-bdf-dry-fly-barbless-hooks-30-pack
Kingfisher House Brand Barbless: https://kingfisherflyshop.com/kingfisher-fly-fishing-standard-dry-fly-hook-barbless/

100 hooks for $10 for the Kingfisher. Not totally outside the realm of possibility that they are the same hooks from the same overseas factory tbh.

Thanks! Great deals at Kingfisher. I just picked up 200 hooks for $20 and free shipping!

Was going for some herring type patterns using predator wrap and barred voodoo fibers for the backs. Should the back materials extend past the white saddle hackles, even or short?
