Try the Mohair Leech w/without a black bead head.
Tie in the tail section. Wrap the body, tie it off and your done. Get a fine wire brush, and brush the Mohair works great.
This pattern has been around since dirt, but in Michigan they called it the Chicago Leech, and it sold for $2.50.
I now live in Dracut, Mass.
Take Care,

Subject: [VFB] Re: favorite leech patterns, colors

Have been asked to tie an "assortment" of leech patterns and in assorted colors for a friend at work ..she's giving them as a surprise to her flyfishing husband.  As I generally only tie black leeches and only with Estaz, I'm open to suggestions as to what should be in this leech flybox..colors, patterns that are especially helpful, sizes of hooks. Thanks for your help. Joyce
