Partridge K2BY Barbless Caddis Pupa – A Classic British Hook for Caddis Pupae and Emerger Patterns
The Partridge K2BY Barbless Caddis Pupa is a specialised hook designed for tying caddis pupae, emerger patterns and other curved-body imitations. Featuring a gently curved shank, a slight up eye and medium wire construction, it creates an exceptionally natural silhouette for insects ascending toward the surface.
Manufactured from premium high-carbon steel with a Black Nickel finish, the K2BY features a Slight Up Eye, Medium Wire construction and a true barbless design. Its distinctive geometry delivers excellent penetration, secure hook holds and a natural presentation, making it a favourite among both competition anglers and traditional fly tyers.
Caddis pupae are most vulnerable as they rise through the water column towards the surface. The K2BY's gently curved profile and slight up eye closely imitate this natural posture, while the medium wire provides the ideal balance between strength and delicate presentation. It is one of Partridge's classic hooks for caddis pupae, emergers and other curved-body fly patterns.
