I always thought it was the other way around.  You couldn't catch any real fish of size so to save your ego and manhood you made up this whole dink fishing scam.

I know that you are giving me a hard time, but I actually I love the research that I do to find spots that have species that I have never caught before, big or small I like them all.

Some bass and trout photos, maybe not giants, but nice fish. I am partial to brown fish ;).

Like it, what about trailing hook with the articulated shanks in front?  rudder might help swimming and avoid short strikes.?  Thanks for sharing, nice pattern

Yes, you can totally do that.  I saw a video yesterday of Blane Chocklett doing exactly that .... hook at the rear.  He put dumbell eyes on the front section instead of a hook.  You wouldn't have to do the eyes, its just another variation.  He was doing that particular variation as sort of a combination of a woolly bugger and the gamechanger articulated micro shanks, for lots of movement.  Called it a Bugger Changer.

Here's that video:
