Spawn Shanks, Hooks & Jigs
Spawn shanks, hooks, and jigs from the Ilwaco shop. Articulated streamer shanks, 60° and 90° jig shanks, micro jigs, Twitch and Alaskan Intruder options, plus swivels. Built for Game Changers, Intruders, and weighted jig flies you actually fish. What a shank is (and when you want one) A shank is the metal spine you build a multi-section streamer or Intruder on. The hook rides behind on a trailer wire or loop. You get length and movement without a single long hook sticking the fish deep in the mouth. Jig shanks add a fixed angle so the fly rides hook-point up with a slotted bead or weight. How to choose length and angle Articulated lengths (about 9-55 mm): short sections for micro Game Changers and baitfish; longer sections for big Intruders and multi-shank streamers. Start with Spawn Bulk Articulated Shanks when you know the mm you want. 60° jig shanks: common euro and trout jig angle. Pair with slotted tungsten. 90° jig shanks: steeper ride for heavier beads and certain nymph / scud builds. Micro jig shanks: small trout and stillwater jig flies when a full shank is overkill. Super Selection packs: mixed articulated lengths when you are still dialing section size. Patterns these shanks belong on Articulated streamers and Game Changer-style baitfish Steelhead Intruders and trailer-hook flies (Alaskan Intruder shanks on this aisle) Twitch-shank streamers when you want a short, lively midsection Jig nymphs and micro jigs on 60° or 90° shanks Beef Shanks and Short Rib Jigs when the pattern calls for those named Spawn SKUs Wire, trailers, and Waddington-style builds Trailer hook wire and swivels keep the hook behind the shank so the fly articulates cleanly. Use Senyo's Intruder trailer hook wire (on the threads, tinsels, and wire aisle) when you need a dedicated trailer connection. Classic Waddington shanks are a related Intruder spine idea; here we stock Spawn articulated and Intruder shanks sized for the same job. Add a swivel from this aisle when you want anti-twist between sections. Heads and beads that seat on jig shanks: Spawn heads, beads, and eyes. Beginner bench context: fly tying for beginners. FAQ Bulk articulated vs Super Selection pack? Bulk when you already know the length. Super Selection when you want a spread of sizes to test Game Changer and Intruder proportions before committing to one mm. 60° or 90° jig shank? 60° covers most trout and euro jig nymphs. 90° when you want a steeper hook-up ride or a heavier bead that needs more kick. Do I still need a hook? Yes. The shank is the body spine. The hook is the trailer. Match hook gap to the fly size so you are not fishing a long shank with a tiny point.
