Tie scaled-down articulated flies with lifelike movement.
The Articulated Micro Shank for Trout Spey flies is a smaller, lighter version of the popular Articulated Shank for Steelhead and Salmon Flies, and is a simple, versatile solution for tying a variety of small, articulated flies such as petite trout wet flies, low-water steelhead flies, sparse streamer designs, and small traditional salmon flies. The wire diameter is small enough to directly attach to hooks as small as size #10.
The ultralight, slim, and strong shank also offers a new option for tying surface flies and brings a high degree of realistic, articulated movement to small fly design.

Very interesting item!
Been experimenting with these for the abdomens of stone and salmon fly nymphs. The test tank results are quite promising, with sufficiently different results from "in the round" as opposed to 'flat' fly styles to fish both.
