It looks like size 4 hooks came with the box. Is it best to use a size 8 for this pattern? This is my first time attempting to a tie a fly

Send me an email, I’ll send you the size 8 hooks. The size 4 hooks are for the intermediate box, they would probably work for the Chernobyl. They have a short shank. Sorry for the mixup
