The Mustad Heritage R43 Dry Fly Hook is an ingenious hook designed for longer dry flies, such as the Mayfly, as well as caddisflies or large stoneflies, all of which can be excellently tied on the R43. Another advantage of this dry fly hook is its 1x-fine wire, providing increased buoyancy to the fly pattern without compromising on stability. The thin wire ensures that less material contributes to the overall weight of the fly. In addition to its shape and weight, the hook boasts unbeatable features. Firstly, it features a chemically sharpened point, crafted using the AlphaPoint process. This process ensures a long, extremely sharp point that penetrates the fish's mouth even with minimal resistance. Secondly, the top-notch TitanX coating gives the hook a matte surface. Besides its matte and smooth finish, this coating has an added benefit—it minimizes light reflections, making the fish less wary of the fly pattern.
-
4.8 AlphaPoint® Technology: The AlphaPoint Technology provides an even sharper and longer point, ensuring optimal hooking properties with minimal pressure on the line.
-
Opti-Angle™: Opti-Angle™ uses a chemical sharpening process as a foundation to achieve incredible sharpness without compromising strength.

Norwegian innovation since 1832! In addition to outstanding quality, Mustad is above all a company steeped in tradition. For a long time, nails and wire were produced in the Mustad factory, until Mathias Topp had the idea of manufacturing fishing hooks in the factory in the middle of the 19th century. Topp and his colleagues produced the first machine for manufacturing high-quality fishing hooks - The Hook Maker - in the greatest secrecy. From then on, Mustad produced first-class hooks for us anglers, but also for industrial and traditional fishing. Mustad is now represented in 160 countries and can draw on a wealth of experience.
