This leech pattern worked exceptionally well in a quiet lake. The way it moves in the water mimics a real leech and triggered several strikes from bass and trout. Easy to tie and durable in the field.
Donna Dickens –
Used it during a morning search in a slow-moving river. Got a solid take from a cruising trout. The color matches well with the water and the action is realistic.

Great for stillwater fishing. The fly stays natural in the current and draws fish in without being too flashy. I’ve used it in multiple lakes and it consistently performs well.
