New spider hook from Ahrex

[sierraflyer]

The Ahrex LE810 Legacy North Country Spider Hook is an excellent hook for spiders and other soft hackles. In the style of traditional spider hooks it has a down eye, barb, straight shank and squared hook bend.

Ahrex LE810 Legacy North Country Spider Hook is a fresh take on a classic design. The new legacy series sports an old style bronze finish. Each pack contains 24 hooks.

It was announced last year, but stock was not released until January 1st.

I didn't see these hooks listed on the J Stockard web site.

Do you know who has them in stock and for sale?

Thanks- Ken

Shipping: $6.95 to my house makes up for the sales tax. not a great deal if you ask me

I've e-mailed J Stockard and Dette Fly Shop to see if they will carry them too. Will update if they reply.
Nothing showed up from Amazon or ebay when searched.

Hi Ken,

Mike at Badger Creek has them, too.

Yes, but when you click on Mike's site, it shows: "out of stock, due in during early 2025".
And his web site is far from "user friendly", at least during my experiences!

Thanks- Ken

I emailed Ahrex and was told, "Hopefully within a couple of weeks. We are shipping to our warehouse this week."

Hopefully, indeed.

Here are the replies I received:

J Stockard: We don't have them now. We may carry them in the future.

Dette: Not currently in stock. We have them on order; expect spring 2025 delivery.
