Fish Skull Articulated Shanks

The Articulated Shank™ is an innovative, new fly tying material designed to simplify the tying of articulated flies.

It can be used as a simple component in different styles of articulated flies such as single-hook and two-hook articulated streamers, poppers and sliders. It is also used for streamers that use a free-swinging stinger hook such as Intruder-style salmon and steelhead flies.

• Easy-and-fast tying process.
• Increases tail action.
• Increases the overall fly length.
• Reduces the leverage a hooked fish typically places on a fly.
• Eliminates the need to “sacrifice a hook” to make a shank.
