This leech pattern works perfectly in Pyramid Lake. The balanced design keeps it steady on the water, and the barbless hook makes it easy to retrieve after a catch. A reliable choice for lake fishing.

Felt like a natural match for the lake conditions. The tungsten bead helps it sink smoothly without flipping. Good for targeting bottom-dwelling fish.
