Gamakatsu R10-B

Interesting looking hook, has anyone used these?

How was the length/gape/wire diameter?

Attachment 1200

Interesting bend. I'd be curious to know if anybody has experience with this hook as well.

I tried them and went right back to the 103 bl if that means anything. The gap is pretty small on that hook.

Any issues with bending/breaking on the 103bl?

I'm trying to find a good barbless, wide gape, straight shank hook for nymphs that runs in small(ish) sizes.

I'd say the 103bl is the hook. Plus, it's design and construction are both proven.

Thanks Halliday

In a word, YES...and they work just fine...
