RIO's Short Shank Redemption

Every once in a while when we photograph flies we want to run them through our mouth first to show how rad they'll look wet, but then realize that it's horribly unsanitary and disgusting to our photographer. This is one of those flies. It is simply one of the sexiest flies you will ever watch swim with an articulated stainless hook body and stinger to work in both salt and freshwater. It sinks similarly to the RIO's Sir Sticks a Lot but is flashier for those murkier water conditions or when you need to grab the attention of fish that have seen everything.
