Hello All,

I am looking for instructions to tie an articulated leech.

I am particularly interested in the version tied with just maribou, but if anyone has any other suggustions that would be great.

If you could post intructions or a link to a good how to site, it would be greatly appreciated...also I have no clue how to attach the two hooks.

thank you.

Ok I'm gonna tell how I tye my articulated patterns.
You need:
-50 lbs. spider wire braid for connector
-super glue
-Dia Riki #810 size ? (what ever kook size you want)

Reason for using short shanked hooks is a streamer hook trailer there is a lot of leverage put on the shank when fish fights. It may lead to hook popping out.

This How I connect my articulated patterns.
-Tye in Spider wire end on top of hook shanks

-thread hook eye on connecting line and tye in tag end and supper glue ther sh*t outta the thread.

And as far as the front and the back of the fly is just a lotta palmering marabou and or wrapping bunny strips.
