I have been using Mustad hooks for all my tying for over 14 years and I have no complaints with them. I like the price and the quality suits my needs. Every once in a while I will find a hook with a bad eye or something, but, 1 bad hook out of a box of 100 every once in a while does not bother me. Others will have their favorite brand and that is fine. I have no negative comments to make about any brand of hook. I buy Mustads in the 100 count and I am pleased with them. I like their price and I do not tie commercially so the only person I have to please is myself.

Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.
