Partridge CS86 Universal Predator Fly Hooks

Partridge CS86 Universal Predator is a strong hook for predator flies used in freshwater, estuary and saltwater settings. The wide gape is intended for large-profile patterns, including flies for pike, muskie, zander, perch and bass. Its micro-barb is part of the construction and should be considered when selecting a hook for a particular method and local regulations.

Design and use

The wide opening supports fuller streamers and large baitfish imitations while leaving useful space between shank and point. The strong form suits more substantial materials, but hair and fibres should be kept in proportion to the intended fly size so the point remains clear. It provides a broad base for predator patterns across different water environments.
