I was aghast that anyone should use such an inelegant fly on such a noble fish. But then, he proceeded to outfish us all for the week. I don't know how to tie them, but I will vouch for their effectiveness.
Not much help here,
Leland.
Does anybody fish string leeches for steelhead and if so, can I pry the answers to the following questions, please?What size hooks (front and rear) do you use for winter fishing? How heavily weighted are the flies and are they wieghtd front and rear or only in the front? What is the distance from the leading shank to the stinger hook or what is the total length of the fly? What are the most popular colors for winter fish? Thanks, in advance, for the answers. Regards, Don Johnson
