This is a popular pattern for steelhead in the GTA and on Great Lakes tributaries throughout the region. Can be euro-nypmhed, fished under an indicator or float fished with a centrepin.
Super durable and has a wonderfully natural "chewy" texture. Material gets very soft when wet and straightens out. Must have for steelhead and high water trout!
If you know, you know! The Graboid Leech is one of the hottest intruder flies for swinging for steel, whether that is here at home on the Great Lakes or on the West Coast. These flies are locally tied.
