In a play on the ever popular Sexy Walt's Worm, and at the recommendation of Brad (check out his Instagram here), we present the Sexy Walt's Leech (click here to buy the fly)! It has the awesome fishiness of the Sexy Walt's worm on a barbless jig hook - but then we add a the pine squirrel zonker strip and convert it into a leech. Dead drift this, slow retrieve it, fish it under an indicator with a little chop on the water, or actively retrieve it and be ready to hold on tight as the fly gets smashed!
