Fish-Skull Shrimp & Cray Tails

Blane Chocklatt's opened so many doors with his articulated game changer shank system as well as many other materials for tying big flies
Like his body tubing as well as various kits,poppers,eyes and other materials. Absolutely awesome products

They should taper the tails to make tying easier. also the metal is super slick so they can slip easily

These are spend y but a nice addition for certain applications. I gave only 4 stars as the tie in point can create a lump in smaller flies. Not enough for me to re-grind the tie in tab though.

In addition to weight one of the best features is the "smoke trail" these things create in soft bottoms. Just like the real thing. They also add more sink rate options on the weight of the fly, paired with no eyes, bead chain, or heavier. When paired with tungsten eyes this will get the fly down in deeper water or stronger currents. A worthwhile addition if used judiciously.
