Egg Sucking Leech
Time: Short Difficulty: Easy Season: All
The egg sucking leech is a tested and tried pattern that everyone should have. Swung, stripped, thrown using floating or sinking line, it’s hard to fish this pattern incorrectly. For trout, I like using sizes 4-10 and for any warm water fish, I will up the size to as large as 2/0. Don’t be caught without one of these in your box!
INGREDIENTS
- Hook: Gamakatsu B10S size 4
- Tail: Olive Rabbit Zonker, Olive Dubbing
- Body: Red thread, Gold Ribbing, Olive Rabbit Zonker
