Master European-style jig techniques and tactical nymphing with the premium Umpqua XC400BL-BN X-Series Hook. Explicitly engineered for competitive anglers and demanding fly tiers, this heavy-wire "Super Jig" hook delivers the strength and technical design required to secure large fish in heavy currents.

Featuring a precise 60-degree vertical eye bend, the XC400BL-BN provides an optimal presentation that allows your flies to ride perfectly point-up along the river bottom, dramatically reducing snags. A carefully curated wide gap maximizes hooking efficiency, while the extra-long, barbless needle point ensures immediate penetration and superior holding power without tearing delicate tissue.

Perfect for pairing with standard tungsten slotted beads or Umpqua's Jig Bomb beads, this hook optimizes your available shank length so you can tie perfectly proportioned Perdigons, Jig Pheasant Tails, and custom tactical patterns.
