Default Alec Jackson chironomid hooks

Had a reasonable (but not red hot) session on a local Edmonton area lake today using a black/red Ice Cream Cone (snow cone) tied on an Alec Jackson #14 chironomid hook. 'Bows up to 16 inches nicely hooked in the snout and very easily released. Hook did not deform or straighten at all, unlike certain Mustad hooks in an earlier outing.

Bought on-line from Canadian Llama in Kamloops. Pricey, ~$10 for 25, but well worth it!
