Well it is 'run off' now on the Bow with about 12"-18" visability, and so this brings out the big boys and girls of course, and one of their main diet..the 'black leech'!

..so here just one of my ties for the 'Leech'...

thanks James..you should give it a try...if you can't get ..black leather..used deer hide [buckskin] and mark it with black permanent felt pen..works better unless the leather is thin and supple........AW

Sure does look like a leech Wolfie. What do you catch with it, just rainbows or something else as well?

..red ultra wire for ribbing..
..bead head to suit the hook you are using..
