Waddington Double Shanks
Waddington Double Shanks are a platform for tying large fly bodies.  In the British Isles a treble hook was inserted into the shank before tying.  We use a trailer hook on FireLine and this allows us to tie patterns from 2-8 inches in length and get the hook back where we want it.

The fly is tied on the shank over a loop which trails to loop over the hook.  These 55mm weigh in at over a gram and a half each and sink very well with no additional weight.
