HOLY CRAP!

I am excited to see everyone's flies. Looking forward to trying a few new patterns.

I called mine the Mohair leech, but it really needs a better name. So when you see it maybe you can come up with a suggestion.

I didnt add a toe tag so here is the info.

Black Rabbit Zonker strip (Cross cut looks like crap)
Black Mohair Yarn
Black bead
10 wraps of lead.
4X hook (You can go bigger or smaller depending on what you need)

This streamer is best fished in highwater, tight to the banks. I usually let it dead drift and sink, if you dont get a hit, then some strip pauses and you will hook up if you are in fishy water. I also usually mend down stream and strip it downstream along the bank. It has produced some really nice fish for me this past year.
