I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

That is very cool 8-)

Intersting hook to put it all on as well... I really must get some more adventurous hooks! :roll:

Thanks guys. Mark it's an old date Mustad 3121. I like the up eye for flymphs, and this is a pretty heavy wire hook, which I also like for flymphs. Might be a little overkill on spiders.

Here is where I found them. I have found some great hooks here and the price and service really can't be beat.
