TMC 212Y is a curved dry fly hook and it has lighter wire than TMC 212TR. There is a short, straight section behind the hook eye. This makes this hook ideal for tying parachute dry flies, such as Klinkhammer and its variants. Also a good hook for tying pupae and other insect imitations where curved design allows creating more life-like patterns.

Specifically designed for very selective trout like Japanese Yamame. 'Y' in the model name stands for Yamame. In Europe this hook is ideal for shy whitefish, grayling, char and brown trout in slower current and lakes.
