Black Leggy Leech Universal

No comments yet

If you can choose one color for your fly, it must be black, and if you can only choose one model, it must be the classic Wooly Bugger. It's a big claim – but the black Wooly Bugger could well be the most universal and best all-round fly of all. It originally imitates a leech, but the swimming movement in the water and the woolly appearance have proven time and time again to be deadly effective in both saltwater and freshwater aswell as running or stillwater, and as an imitation for both insects and baitfish.

In this video, Mo will give his take on one of his all-around favorites, The Black Leggy Leech.

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
