Rowley's BB Micro Leech

The Rowley's BB Micro Leech, designed by fly fishing expert Rowley, is a small yet effective fly pattern that has become a favorite for targeting a variety of fish species, particularly trout, in stillwater environments. The BB Micro Leech is a versatile pattern known for its compact design and natural swimming motion, mimicking a leech or small aquatic creature that predatory fish find irresistible. This fly works particularly well in colder waters when fish are feeding on smaller prey. The fly’s use of beads, usually black or brown, helps sink it quickly, keeping it within the ideal feeding zone near the bottom or mid-water column.

Retrieve with Occasional Pauses: For the most effective presentation, retrieve the BB Micro Leech slowly and add occasional pauses. The leech’s subtle undulating movement during the pause will mimic the natural drift of a leech or other small aquatic creature, enticing a strike from predatory fish.
