Tiemco (TMC)

Tiemco, a Tokyo-based company commonly known as TMC, makes some of the world's most respected fly tying hooks. Renowned for chemically-sharpened points, consistent gape and bend dimensions across batches, and the kind of fit-and-finish that makes them a pattern-recipe staple in tying literature.

The TMC hook lineup covers dry fly, nymph, scud, jig, wet, and specialty patterns in barbed and barbless versions. If a pattern recipe calls for a TMC hook by number, this is the authentic source.
