Description

Make your first shank in the chain even easier with an Articulated Micro Spine Tail Shank. Tie realistic micro flies with true-to-life movement and take your trout and small fly fishing to the next level with Chocklett’s™ Articulated Micro Spine.

Created in partnership with renowned fly tyer and fishing guide Blane Chocklett, the new Chocklett’s Articulated Micro Spine allows fly tyers to take the Game Changer style of fly tying to completely new territory.

The sky is the limit for realistically imitating insects, small baitfish, crustaceans, and other aquatic critters with never-before-possible lifelike movement. The new triangular back-loop design reduces the gap between segments and makes it easier to fit in your fly tying vise jaws.

The system is comprised of 3 different shanks (8mm, 6mm and a 6mm long Tail Shank) which are all sold separately. They can be connected (“daisy chained”) in a limitless number of different combinations to create virtually any highly articulated, small fly you desire.

The Micro Spine Tail Shank make it easy to clamp a very small section of shank into your vise to start your fly, with just enough to get a tail attached.

Fly tying kits kits can be found in the Tying Kits Category in the Troutlore Fly Tying Store. The kits from Flymen Fishing Co offer a great starting point for learning a new fly pattern. Our other customized ‘TieYourOwn’ fly tying kits offer larger amounts of materials and hooks (including threads). These allow you to tie larger volumes of flies (usually around 24 or 25 depending on the hook packs supplied), and still have materials left over to tie more with the addition of more hooks.
