Aqua Flies 60 Degree Jig Shanks
The Aqua Flies 60 Degree Jig Shank is a unique design in the world of shank flies. Use these shanks to tie steelhead, trout or bass flies. Add a tungsten bead or cone to the head of the fly and create a jiggy fly that will drive the fish mad. Tie a sculling pattern on the jig shank with the Ultra Rig and create a more fish friendly fly. Aqua Flies shanks are designed with the fly tier in mind. All of these shanks have a gun metal finish and the ends have been polished to ensure the trailing loop will not be compromised while fishing.

- The shanks are made of 1mm diameter wire and have a gun metal finish
- The Ultra Tubing will fit snugly onto the back end of the shank

I’ve used these shanks to tie several trout patterns and they hold up well under pressure. The 60-degree angle gives a great action, and the polished ends don’t catch on the line. Easy to work with and durable.

The shanks fit perfectly with my Ultra Rig. The 35mm size works great for larger fish. The finish is smooth and the wire is strong without being too stiff.

Great quality for the price. The 25mm shank is perfect for smaller streams. I added a tungsten bead and the fly moved naturally in the water. Highly recommend for fly tiers.
