I have to ask, are articulated that much better than non? I rarely use articulated, maybe I need to try more?[

Excellent question: I have caught alot of fish with non-articulated streamers. (Most of my time is spent throwing streamers.) But the biggest fish I have caught are on articulated streamers. This past fall I was on a river system and caught a 21 1/2" brown on a olive dungeon I tied. The fish I caught earlier in the day were smaller on a single hook streamer. I did not break 20" until I went to articulated patterns. Alot of 19" and 19 1/2" fish on single hook. But I cannot say definitively that articulated is better. I must say that I have caught many browns throwing up a 4" to 5" fish from their mouths.
