Bunny Leech

Cheech - March 2024

The Bunny Leech is a versatile and effective streamer used in fly fishing. It features a long, flowing tail made from rabbit fur strips, giving it a lifelike motion underwater. This body is tied using a dubbing loop which takes away unnecessary bulk from the rabbit strip.
