Description

The Next Generation of articulated Jig shanks The Articulated Jig Shank (JS) is an innovative 60-degree, jig-style articulated shank with a slot to tie in dumbbell eyes. This slot places the dumbbell or weight beneath the center of gravity, allowing for true jig turnover and proper keeling - something other jig-style shanks cannot to do. Perfect for tying jig style, weighted and unweighted game changer style and other articulated flies. Ideal for single shank-to-hook flies.
