{"title":"Shanks","description":"\u003cp\u003eTying shanks can be used in a variety of ways. Currently we carry shanks for tying modern Steelhead and Salmon flies. These shanks have an upturned eye and are meant to add length to a fly pattern, while letting the tyer use a short shanked hook. Shorter shanks tend to bend less than a long shank, making them a preferred hook for landing big anadromous fish. \u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"senyos-steelhead-shank","title":"Senyo's Steelhead Shank by Aqua Flies","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0022\/3854\/5969\/files\/Aqua_Flies_Logo.jpg?v=1619545777\" alt=\"\" width=\"256\" height=\"90\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSenyo's Steelhead Shank by Aqua Flies\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned by steelhead innovator Greg Senyo, this up-eye shank brings a classic look and modern performance to today’s articulated and intruder-style flies.
