Fish Skull – Next Generation Micro Shank – Lightweight, strong shanks for smaller articulated flies.
The Fish Skull Next Generation Micro Shank is built for tying compact articulated flies with lifelike swimming action. Made from durable stainless steel, these lightweight shanks offer the same strength and corrosion resistance as the original Next Generation Shanks but in a smaller profile. The looped ends provide secure connections to hooks, tails, or additional shanks, giving tiers maximum versatility for trout, bass, and smaller predator patterns. Perfect for mini-intruders, trout streamers, or micro-articulated designs, the Micro Shank is a must-have tool for creative fly tiers.

Triangular Rear Loop
Reduces the gap between interconnected shanks by pulling the shanks closer together resulting in flies with tighter, more integrated bodies.
Triangular shape is easier for the jaws of the vise to grip and hold the shank, especially important with the smaller size shanks.
Loop eye
Stronger than a ring eye, the loop eye eliminates chance of shank failure enabling you to land bigger, stronger fish.
Extended Wire tags
The “tag end” of the shanks are now extended to run the full length of the shank. This means there are now 3 parallel wire strands creating an even base platform to wrap the thread and materials along the entire length of the shank. Makes it easier to wrap, more precise and overall, much stronger shank.
SIngle Design
Easier for fly tyers to better understand the articulation concept and tie better, more effective articulated flies across the full spectrum of fly sizes.
