AHREX SA250 – Shrimp Hook for Modern Shrimp & Shallow Water Patterns
The AHREX SA250 is a premium saltwater shrimp hook developed for modern shrimp patterns, shallow-water baitfish flies and a wide range of coastal species. Building on the proven Nordic Salt hook design, the SA250 features a refined bend and a slightly wider hook gap, offering improved hooking performance while maintaining the clean, natural profile that contemporary shrimp flies demand.
Equipped with a Straight Eye, chemically sharpened Needle Point, small barb and the highly corrosion-resistant A-Steel Finish, the SA250 is designed to withstand harsh saltwater environments. Its versatile geometry makes it equally at home in realistic shrimp imitations, Bonefish flies and innovative bend-back designs.
The SA250 evolved from the popular Nordic Salt NS150 platform but introduces a refined bend and a wider hook gap to improve hooking efficiency. Its versatile profile has made it a favourite for modern shrimp flies, while renowned fly designer Bob Clouser has even referred to it as a "Shallow Water Clouser Hook" because of its excellent performance in shallow coastal environments.
