AHREX FW555 – CZ Mini Jig Hook for Czech Nymphing & Long-Body Jig Patterns
The AHREX FW555 is a specialised jig hook from the Freshwater series, developed for Czech nymphing and modern long-bodied jig patterns. While sharing the proven 60° jig geometry of the FW551, the FW555 features a longer shank that provides additional tying space for slender, elongated nymph bodies.
Featuring a 60° Flat Jig Eye, chemically sharpened Needle Sharp Point and a durable Black Nickel Finish, the FW555 rides hook point up when paired with a slotted tungsten bead, reducing snagging while maintaining excellent bottom contact.
The FW551 excels when tying compact Perdigons and short Euro nymphs. The FW555, with its longer shank, is designed for slender Czech nymphs, caddis larvae and other elongated subsurface patterns. If realistic body proportions are as important as a point-up presentation, the FW555 offers the ideal tying platform.
