At any rate, thanks in advance: I know that I'm late to the party with this discontinued hook, but I could probably scare some up.

Partridge GRS7MMB (Jardine Living Nymph hook)?
I was wondering if any of y'all had firsthand experience with this hook--I'm intrigued by the profile, but since I mostly use a Tenkara rod with 6X tippet, lighter is usually better for me. Is the shank any longer than the Mustad R50-u that so many of you are using for flymphs?

OOOO! I love it. I wish someone would make the Daiichi 1260 with an up eye!

Don't they look cool? Very much in your "flymph as emerger" philosophy, I think--I can't imagine why they didn't take off, except for the muttering about the "Grey Shadow" coating.
