Gamakatsu F22 Hooks 12 25pcs NS Black Fliegenhaken

Gamakatsu F22 — Reliable Fly Hook for Clean Presentations

The Gamakatsu F22 is a dedicated fly fishing hook built for tiers who demand consistent sharpness and a discreet finish. This pack contains 25 hooks in size 12, coated in NS Black.

Wide Gape, Better Hook-Ups

The F22 features a broad hook bend that keeps fish pinned from the moment of the strike. Combined with a chemically sharpened point, the geometry maximises the contact area on the take, reducing the chance of a missed run or early escape.

NS Black Coating for a Natural Look

The NS (Nano Shield) Black finish gives the hook a dark, low-visibility profile in the water. This subtle presentation is well suited to clear or lightly coloured water where fish are more likely to inspect the fly closely before committing.

Choose the Right Variant

The F22 is available in several sizes — each with the same NS Black coating, sharp point and eye for tying. Match the size to the fly pattern and the species you are targeting.

• Size 6 — larger nymphs, streamers, and bushy dry flies; suitable for trout in faster, coloured water or grayling on big rivers

• Size 8 / 10 (unlabelled variants) — mid-range all-rounders for standard nymph and wet-fly patterns

• Size 12 — classic dry-fly and nymph sizes; ideal for trout and grayling on chalk streams and clear stillwaters

• Size 14 — smaller nymphs and emergers; effective in low, clear conditions when fish are selective

• Size 16 — fine dry flies and midge patterns; best for technical fishing to rising fish in flat, calm water
