A short shank hook is an interesting tool for a tier. If you tie a standard length pattern on a short shank hook, you select one size larger than normal - a size 12 Adams fits on a size 10 short shank. This does two things that may be beneficial. First it gives you one size heavier wire, therefore increased strength. It also gives a wider gape for increased hooking effectiveness.
