Rivfly Forged Scud & Pupa Hooks | Barbed Curved Shank Fly Tying Hooks

Every nymph fisherman knows the secret: the most effective flies are the ones that get deep and look alive. The Rivfly Forged Scud & Pupa Hook is the chassis your most trusted patterns are built upon. Engineered for realism and brute strength, this is the hook you reach for when you need to turn a subtle take into a landed fish.

Precision-forged from high-carbon steel, our hooks feature a flattened body that dramatically increases strength and rigidity without adding bulk. This means you can tie slender, realistic nymphs that can still handle the surprising power of a trophy trout. The continuous, sweeping curve of the hook shank is the perfect profile for imitating freshwater shrimp (scuds), caddis pupae, sowbugs, and a variety of other subsurface insects.

Each hook is finished with an ultra-sharp, barbed point, chemically sharpened for instant, effortless penetration. The down-turned eye provides a secure, in-line anchor for your tippet, ensuring a natural drift and maximum hooking power.

Stop losing fish to weak hooks. Build your best nymphs on a foundation of strength. Tie with Rivfly.
