Thanks to its uncompromising quality, reliability and innovation, for the past 20 years Tiemco has become the undisputed fly hooks manufacturing leader and favorite amongst fly tyers around the world.
Tiemco introduced an innovative chemical-sharpening process which makes Tiemco hooks one of the strongest weapons in fly fisherman's arsenal. The sharpness of the hooks makes it nearly impossible to unhook the fish once it has been hooked on and reeling in has begun. The fly hook is one of the most important and yet often simultaneously one of the most overlooked components in the fly fishing gear. The reason is that fly tyers often tend to focus more on having quality fly tying materials, equipment and vices but when it comes to having sharp and quality fly hooks to use, the hooks quantity often out weights the quality.
Fly tyers pay great attention to detail when it comes to the craftsmanship of the fly - what threads and dubbling to use, it's silhouette and nuances - all undoubtedly very important factors when creating an effective fly, however if the hook itself is not sharp enough, has the wrong shape or rusts easily, it could effectively rendered a great fly craftsmanship useless if a trophy fish unhooks due to poor quality of the hook. However with the ever increasing fishing "pressure" exerted on the rivers and lakes everywhere, missing a trophy fish is not a luxury we can (or want to) afford every day - this can be averted by using Tiemco hooks.

Tiemco has also successfully started manufacturing other products. Tiemco's leaders, tippets, floatants and fly fishing accessories are something you have to try to see how the No. 1 fly hooks manufacturer approaches new ventures. Tiemcos leaders and tippets are extremely strong and have precise diameter. Tiemco's floatants are some of the best in the world.
We can say that each Tiemco product is marked by the specifics of the Japanese culture as a whole and their understanding about life. Every little detail is crafted to perfection and they never make compromises when it comes to quality. This is what makes Tiemco an excellent (we think the best!) choice when it comes to strong, sharp and reliable hooks.
