Looking for Partridge Ad Swier Pike Fly Hooks ( CS43 )

[DaveMac]

I recently purchased a Pike Fly from Europe ( see photo ).

I have not been able to locate a North American source for Partridge Ad Swier Pike Fly Hooks ( CS43 ) 8/0. Does anyone know of one?

Don O,
Don't you have 8/0 hooks in your 'small' stuff?

Seriously David, look up Don here on FAOL under DonO1 or at http://www.fantasyflies.com/index.php
If anyone here can help you find hooks that size I'm sure Don can.

Great suggestion Roger - That should have been the first place that I went!!!

Thank you Hugefish_80, looks like the 2/0 is their largest. I shall give them a call, perhaps they can get the 8/0 too.

Ad Zwier is an Dutch fly angler.
If you like to, I would ask for ypou over here in Holland where you can purchase the hooks,
I know a few dutch shops where these hooks can be bought
