The
Talon Range of Hooks cover most Fly fishing requirements
from Salmon single low water types to Stainless Steel to
3 grades of Freshwater Hooks, economy, premium to their
finest, the Peregrine range. And all with plain packaging,
that adds value to the product and not the pretty packet,
which you throw away.
This way, Talon gives you a better hook and not a better
packet for your hard earned dollar !
Have
you ever noticed, how some people rubbish, put down a hook
that costs less than their brand, I have wondered why. No,
I know it is because they are not using a Talon Fly Hook
and maybe have paid too much for their hook ?
Wow
! I have just seen a wonderful example of putting down Talon
Hooks from what I thought was one of the most (not any more)
respected Magazine's web sites in this country Australia,
which just goes to show you how low some people will reach
to try to help their advertisers and friends and rubbish
a brand that is selling well, which doesn't advertise in
'their 'magazine.
If Talon
Fly Hooks sales are hurting them, their sales, I wonder
why ? I know why, because they, Talon Fly Hooks represent
the best value fly hooks on the market today.
With
the use on non flashy advertising promising the World and
beyond, and not offering packaging that costs more than
the fly hooks, the packaging you throw away, Talon Fly Hooks
can offer and give to you, a huge discount in price but
never in quality of the fly hook.
Talon
Stainless Steel Hooks
are not chemically sharpened, why, because when we have
had a hot bite going, on a number of occasions the hookup
rate suddenly dropped off, without realizing it the hook's
point had chipped off, we even had hooks snap. So to over
come the problems we decided that it would be easier to
quickly sharpen the hook with a small stone and have the
hook bend slightly and still be attached to the fish. These
are just some of the design parameters that were used for
the Talon Stainless Steel Hooks range.
Talon
Fresh Water Hooks
3 Price levels and levels of performance at a price you
may think is impossible, but the price is real and totally
fair.
Harrier
The economical fly hook range. Made in Japan for Talon with
a chemically sharpened needle point and hi-carbon content,
these fly hooks also have splinter barbs.
Falcon
Also chemically sharpened with needle points and hi carbon
content and with a tiny splinter barb, made from a finer
wire than the Harrier range and improved tempering.
Peregrine
As the name suggests, the optimum in performance, finer
wire than both the Harrier and Falcon ranges, hi carbon
content, micro splinter barbs and finely tuned temper to
produce a hook which removes most of todays problems, bending
while in the vice and straightening while being fished.
Talon
Low Water Salmon
These hooks were made to Talon's requirements in Japan,
finished in traditional Japanese black. They are designed
to hold a 60 lb. leaping Salmon, however they have proved
themselves clever staying attached to Australia's Barramundi.
Bass patterns also improve their swimming action with the
use of a Salmon hook. We have tried a number of Trout flies
using these hooks with wonderful success, to date the best
pattern is the old stand by, the Mrs.Simpson.
