In 1990 Jim Lepage designed and patented the original “Big Eye” hook. The original big eye was a straight-eyed dry fly hook with an oversized eye (Daiichi 1110) to facilitate easy threading of tippets. Style #1100 was introduced in 1994. It is the same basic design as the 1110 except for the down-eye, which is more popular for dry flies.
