Over time, undoubtedly, the Kissing Leech is one of the most effective trout fly patterns in the best fly fishing lakes in BC. This simple and easy to attach to models of flying murderess present a new dimension to your experience to your fly fishing BC. Let me tell you my story.
While spending part of a summer in the Yukon Territory in Canada a few years ago I had the opportunity of living freshwater invertebrates of different insects to see in person.Strangely, many of the same aquatic life cycles in this northern climate like in the fly-fishing lakes in southern British Columbia found. The only difference would be the time in which it occurs. With longer days and shorter seasons, life cycles of insects will be in fast forward.
One thing I've ever seen in my neck of the woods (Kamloops, BC) was the combination of the common leech. There was plenty of leeches in the Wellesley Lake and were a little 'smaller than the leeches that we see here. They looked only about 2-3 cm in length (+ / -1 cm) to be. During mating, they closed at one end forming a pattern of "V" and seemed to float around for a long time, curled in this formation. It's not really dawn on me then that this is a potential fly patterns. When I returned home to Kamloops, I was reviewing what I had observed and began tying a fly> Model that looked like leeches coupling. I experimented with rabbit strip leech in the previous year, but I was big and bulky bind. This model could be shorter in general and not as bulky items along the body of the hook. I still have strips of rabbit with hooks of different sizes were sensational and the results. Due to the potential marketability of the model for the general public, it was uncool to fly, "Coupling Leech" or just a simple "f * #% ING old nameLeech, "so we decided to iron out the name of a much more acceptable" Kissing Leech ".
This model is effective for the entire season, but especially in the early stages, shortly after ice off and freeze late in the season, within a month. This model has seasons.It to take my first fish of each of the last 3 in all other lines (floats, sinkers slow, deep plates, etc.) can be fished using different techniques and recovery, but it led me to suspect that callallows the fly to pulsate. I particularly like fish weedbeds parallel to the cruiser to take the drop off. It also has relatively good summer in the doldrums, when combined with a line that sinks deep into the deeper holes of the lake (25'-40 'deep) is used.
As for the strip of rabbit, I discovered that was added to each branch of the "V" in a different color on the fly to generate attractability increasingly affects. My favorite color combination is purple and black. I usually do armsthe same length, but I also had success in changing the length of each arm.

Materials for the Kissing Leech
Hook: Mustad 9672 - # 6 - # 12
Theme: Black - Danville is 210 - Flymaster + PLUS +
Body (tree hooks): black wire, Peacock Herl, dark flashiboo
Body (material leeches): strip of rabbit -purple, black, dark red, olive green, etc.)
Rib: Usually not, but you could try a red, silver, gold or thin copper wire-wrap Thorax: Peacock Herl
Tail: usually not a shortcut or try a bunch of strips of rabbit
Head:. Small (3 / 32 "), white or black, glass beads or metal gold pearl may also be sufficient
Tying instructions for the Leech Kissing:
Slide the glass of white or black pearl.DressHook with the thread and tie and dark rib. Keep your body slim. Safe behind the head bead. Wrap the ribs to the front for about 1 / 8 "behind the head bead and secure.
Cut the rabbit strip to length. I suggest cutting the skin from 3 / 4 "and 1" in length. Make the diagonal, so that the skin shrinks to a point.
Position the first strip along one side of the shaft, inserting the tip of the strip or close to Pearl's head as possible. Bond with a neighbor a fewTwenty (which is why I propose the wire Flymaster +) and secure
Tie a strand of Peacock Herl for the chest. Wrap each time.
Place the second strip of rabbits on the opposite side of the hook, inserting the tip under the heel, if possible. Secure and tie firmly.
Wrap the end of Peacock Herl and secure the head behind the head bead. Add cement head.
