OK, here's a question - how do you tell how much weight you have on a fly while you're on the stream?

Living would be easier if men showed as much patience at
home as they do when they're fishing.

Hi Steve,
  I've always tied the leeches with marabou. Then I was reading in one of my tying books about using "cross cut" rabbit strips, which when wrapped on the hook (palmered) makes a very nice bushy leech. I tried not weighing them and it took a while to get them down, the rabbit hair longer then the marabou. So I now tie them with different amounts of weight depending on where I fish them. In my opinion though, I would rather use the marabou. I think it gives better movement in the water.
