Am i being picky? i want to make a good attempt of tying a decent fly . im not quite sure what to do about this problem i currently have a good supply of mustad hooks in various streamers nymphs and drys and alot of my patterns are calling for daiichi hooks is there a site or a refferance that i can obtain to be able to decide what hooks to sub?now i could go to lines end and purchase several hundred dollars of hooks from byard.good for him but bad for me. and i will probably start to make the change slowly soon, however i just cant do that at the moment so i have to make do with what i have .sorry byard, in time my freind.all help is much appreciated
