March Fly of the Month Leeches

My March fly is two versions of the black leech patern, which is an easy fly to tie. The first is the Egg Sucking Leech Tail:                 Black Marabou Body:               Black chenille Hackle:             Black Egg:                 Chenille choose any color you would use for yarn flies from white to hot                          pink The second fly is the Electric Black Leech Tail:                 Black Marabou and blue flahaboo Body:               Black chenille Hackle:             Black Ribbing:            Blue Flashaboo   Both flies are great on when Steelhead are looking for bigger bited in the spring and fall. These flies are also great for fall Salmond.

Dead drift this fly with either a  float and fly rod. Another way with a fly rod is to swing the fly in front of the fish as the above picture. This is a deadly presentation for fall spawning Salmond.
