Description Based on Colorado's world-class guide and tyer Landon Mayer's Mini Leech, this is a jig pattern that will produce in many scenarios including:
  • High water conditions,
  • Low light,
  • Dead drifted as a point fly,
  • On the swing at the end of a drift, or
  • Stripped, either by itself or as the trailer in a two-fly streamer rig.
Leeches are a high protein meal for fish.  While many of us think about leeches as the large, worm-like slugs we saw in the classic Stand By Me, most freshwater leeches are small, highly active swimmers.  Landon's choice of micro pine squirrel and osterich herl mimic both of these characteristics in a way that is often irresisable to fish.  Consider all colors -- Brown, Black, and Rust.

Description The Thin Mint might be the streamer of the decade.  The tungsten bead version and the the articulated version are both top sellers.  This is another version in the same same highly-productive color scheme.  This version varies in the following ways:
  • We tie this in smaller sizes,
  • This pattern is tied on a jig hook,
  • The "hackle" is a mix of black and brown CDC, and
  • The dubbing collar is swept back to create pulsating leech movements
We fish this several ways, including in lakes under an indicator or stripped slowly and dread drifted as a point fly (our favorite way to fish this).  

Add this version to your Thin Mint line-up.

Streamers are created to imitate a swimming prey or baitfish. They are generally fished by swimming (stripping) the fly across the river or lake.

While smaller trout and other species focus on eating bugs, once the fish matures, it becomes territorial, and will bite at intruders, as well as eat them. Therefore, streamers are particularly effective at catching big fish!

While a dry fly or nymph require precise presentations, streamers are best fished in a wide arc, where you can quickly cover a lot of water. Swim the streamer next to deep cut banks, through deep pools. The faster the streamer moves (up to a point), the faster the fish must react, and the bit can be viscious! Heavily weighted streamers incorporating Tungsten Beads, Fish Skull and Fish Sculpin Heads sink quick, where Big Fish are ready to strike.

Which Streamer to Use? If you know a water body has crayfish, try a Crayfish Streamer. If there are Sculpin Baitifish, try a Sculpin Baitifish Streamer. Leeches? Try a Wooly Bugger. But don't get too caught up with exact matches. Fish strike at many styles of streamers, and the efficiency of covering a lot of water with a streamer will allow you to quickly try a number of patterns...and the fish will let you know what they like!
