Sometimes there is little difference between a leech and streamer pattern. I am not sure the fish care either. I will try this for a streamer pattern. I am wondering why you use a jig hook. This might help to make the fly more horizontal and natural under a bobber or bung.
So to me a leech is a a streamer pattern. Sometimes I tie them small enough I would consider them a “nymph” size but only because of hook size, but it’s not a nymph. I tie these a lot on jig hooks, this however is not. When tying on a jig I either balance them with some tungsten or fish them as a jig under an bobber/indicator. Super effective
@@Svenddiesel I agree. A jig hook with a slotted or offset tungsten bead is an easy way to tie a balanced leech or streamer. They did not work today however.
Think I'm going to have to pick up a box of simi seal. Has a really nice look.
Matt Mcfarland yeah I think it has the perfect amount of flash and movement. Great stuff
Love it. I've been wanting to pick up that specific dubbing box for a while now.
SpruceBruce it’s my favorite box of theirs. Has most of the good colors
