  • I use this bunny leech the most for nymphing. I know it sounds weird, but this streamer works great for an attractor. I will drop a small midge behind this, and fish it under an indicator or even "euro nymph" it. Also, it is a great streamer for fishing with light rigs. This is easily casted with a 4wt, so it is great for small fish and small streams. Having no hide, makes this fly super light and easy to cast. I always keep some of these in the box with me no matter what river I fish. It has great movement with the bunny hair, and its a great attractor. Rabbit fur has many colors and is widely available at many fly shops, and its rather inexpensive compared to other natural materials. So this fly is a great fly for budge as well.
    Here is a list of materials I used on this fly.
    Hook: Umpqua U301 in size 10 - amzn.to/2ELFxrB

    Fur: Magnum Rabbit Zonker in natural color - www.jsflyfishin...
    Head Cement: Solarez Bone Dry - amzn.to/2FKXMyE
    Here are some tools I used on this fly -

    one of my favorite types of ties. simple, economic, effective.

      Yep! Keep it simple, keep it cheap (in Gandalf voice...). Oh yeah and it must work.

    I hate all the poly materials used nowadays, especially chenille! The stuff gets into our waterways, as if we need more micro plastics polluting our streams and drinking water. Love these simple, no nonsense, mostly natural patterns. Thank you!

    Very nice tie. I love using bunny hackle as a collar but haven't tried it for the entire body. I bet it has some sick movement in the water. Kinda surprised that we didn't get an underwater scene with this video, lol.

      No I didnt do the underwater, my fish tank was being worked on when i made this video. Sorry, I know I always do.
      Glad you like it. Let me know how it works for you. And yes, it moves nicely in the water.

    Super nice and easy, i bet bass would slay that!

    • @McFlyAngler
      @McFlyAngler  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, yea, and tied larger it could be a great bass fly

    I like it! Always have been concerned using zonkers and bunny leeches that the hook through the hide could affect a good hook set. Probably not but confidence means a lot. Thanks for the video.

    • @McFlyAngler
      @McFlyAngler  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Confidence I think is most important.

  • @matthewjeffres1289
    @matthewjeffres1289 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    very well done! Will have to try a bit larger for the Largemouth Bass I chase. Thanks!

    • @McFlyAngler
      @McFlyAngler  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! If I was gonna tie this larger I’d put a tail on it with a full strip. Good luck

    • @matthewjeffres1289
      @matthewjeffres1289 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, that should work. I like the dubbing loop body, I think that would look awesome when fished. Great channel!

  • @stewoutdoors3020

    Awesome thanks, I must try that dubbing loop. You should have received my flys by now ? " STEW FLY "

      Not sure, when I go into work next I’ll ask him.

    Just a thought, but would clear nail polish work as head cement?

    • @McFlyAngler
      @McFlyAngler  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, that’s basically the same thing
