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.

Free Swinging Stinger-Hook style articulated streamers

  • Easy-and-fast tying process.

    • 20 Shanks per pack
    • Typically for streamer flies  3? (7.5cm) and longer
