Yes, it does. I've seen them made of 30 lb. hard mason line or mono, but not this way. I like it, thanks.

With this set up the hook faces up with room to tie on the hook. (Weedless Pike Fly) by Niklaus Bauer. I'm still leaning hopefully I'll get better at it. I hope this helps.....

I took the hook, added a fish skull articulated shank, and tied it on with the knot to kinky. This made it flexible on the hook. See YouTube (Fly Tying flexible extensions weedless bass and pike) by Gunner Brammer

Unfortunately, I'm not set up for anything that big. These were made for a friend who fishes in Canada every spring. I have 4 or 6 fly rods but nothing big enough to handle these flies. They'll look better as I get a few more builds under my belt. Thanks guys.
