Weedless Stiff-Rig and 3-D BULKhead Hybrid (Pike/Saltwater Fly)

The evolution of the Mono-Rig for those that aren’t interested in tying tubes flies. In order to ensure improved hook-ups the shank should be fixed in place with titanium. This also offers the advantage of placing the hook further back as well as having space to tie. The fly is me free-styling with influences from Bob Popovics and Jason Taylor. Don’t get hung up on the fly, as it’s just an example of what you can tie on this rig. This style of rig has been very successful over the last 18 months during testing. I target pike, but there is no reason why this rig cannot be adapted to saltwater or the tropics.
