Gamakatsu C14S Glow-bug
| Availability: | In stock (5) |
The Gamakatsu C14S Glow-Bug is a short-shank, wide-gap fly hook designed primarily for tying egg patterns, glo-bugs, and other small subsurface flies that are effective for trout, steelhead, and salmon. It features a straight eye, a heavy-wire construction for strength, and Gamakatsu’s razor-sharp chemically sharpened point to ensure fast penetration and solid hook sets. The wide gap gives excellent holding power, especially when targeting larger, hard-fighting fish.
The C14S is most often used for:
-
Egg flies / Glo-bugs for steelhead, trout, and salmon
-
Beadhead nymphs (where a short, strong hook is needed)
-
Small attractor patterns like San Juan Worms or blood-dot eggs
With its durability, corrosion-resistant finish, and strong design, the C14S is a favorite among steelhead and salmon anglers who need a hook that won’t bend out under heavy pressure.
