• Gold fleck shimmer Adds subtle flash and attraction
• Double-bonded construction Strong, durable, and long-lasting
• No end-sealing required Clean, hassle-free tying
• Proven Performance: The Shimmy Effect

This material gained its reputation through the original Shimmy worm pattern, first developed by Terry Wood. Tied as a two-tail worm, it showcased just how much natural movement and attraction this chenille can produce in the water.

Fished under an indicator (bung), it has become a go-to choice for worm patterns, especially when fish are keyed in on larger, mobile food sources.

When to Use It
