Thanks guys. Chase I'm on the hunt for 3/0s. Those are mustard 1/0 2xh3xl salmons and they're the same size as a diaaci 1.5aj

3/0 can be hard to find in stock. I have found them in Partridge but I prefer Veniard hooks. In the GTA I would check Wilsons(Toronto) and With a Fly(Mississauga). Also Scott at Flymart.ca is a super guy to deal with and might also be a good resource.

I was there today too. There was a big sac of daiichis but I don't need a big sac of em lol. Agreed on materials tho. Some of that veniards stuff is nice and I'm having better luck with the bm from there.

I'll get the hang of this eventually. Wing looks long but it was sitting nice so I cranked it down.

Nice fly, although I don't like the daiichi's, I've tried bending them for intruders and they frequently break.
