It seems an unspoken truth that if you combine the color black, some kind of flash and a streamer hook your going to be catching fish be it trout, carp, bass, panfish, or pike. With that in mind I did a bit of digging and found a few leech patterns that use Zonker strips to form the majority of the fly, with this idea and a few items unique to the Winona Fly Factory bench I came up with the Kiss My Leech. In similar fashion as the Sprinkle Me Baby this fly has a collar but it’s made of Peacock Ice Dub and brushed out to be scraggly looking, also in the spirit of the SMB I plan to be singing come on baby, Kiss My Leech, Kiss My Leech, Kiss My…..Fish ON!

Awesome. I can’t wait to hear how she fishes (guess I gotta wait a while…)

Just three months but I probably won’t hit streamers hard until the spring thaw and the fish wake up wanting to eat big.
