• Front-fitting design: Simply tie in all materials first, then fit the Sculpin Helmet from the front. Quick and easy to use.
• Front slot; Allows for use on both hook and tube flies.
• Fish-Skull Living Eyes; Included in a corresponding size and color, these ultra-realistic eyes act as an important trigger for predatory game fish.

Heavyweight Keel

Distributes most of the helmets weight to the bottom of the streamer, ensuring it will swim in the correct position. This also allows you to tie with the hook facing either down or up. We have deliberately made the Sculpin Helmet significantly heavier than the Baitfish Head so that it will sink quickly in fast moving rivers and fish deeper near the bottom where sculpins typically live.
Colors

Available in brown, black and olive. The matte (non-shiny) finish is perfect for the type of shy, bottom-dwelling species you are trying to imitate. The special oxide coating gives an uneven, almost blotchy, effect that has differing shades of color. For example, the brown color Sculpin Helmet is mostly a dark brown color, but will also reflect shades of black and tan at different angles giving a type of camouflage effect.
