Jerry It appears to be a size four Octopus hook. Mine has a light wire, up eye and is slightly offset. I'm still trying to match it up to a maker. Anyone know??? Deb

The fly I am looking for does not have weighted eyes. It is tied on a short shank hook #4. That is actually what I cannot remember. It looks like it is Hi-Tied, but it is not. You taper the fibre and the epoxy the head so it looks hi-tied. JG
