    Thanks for that, simple but helpful.
    Don’t suppose you’ll be posting a full video of a MOAL Leech tie? They don’t really seem too complicated, but having not tried one yet a video would be a great help.

    Jay,

    Just wanted to say your videos are great and very helpful. From a native Bendite Oregonian that loves to fish and most of all just driffting down the river with great family and friends.
