The Steamboat Island Leech, though initially designed for Sea Run Cutthroat in Puget Sound, has transcended past its original purpose to become a popular pattern among anglers targeting a variety of species. Its secret lies in its unique movement and simple yet effective materials.

The Magic of Movement: Articulated Action on a Spawn Jig Shank

One of the standout features of the Steamboat Island Leech is its articulation on a Spawn Jig Shank. This setup gives the fly an incredible range of motion, making it come alive in the water. The jig-oriented fly, whether tied on a 60 or 90-degree jig shank, produces an irresistible dance that drives fish wild. This articulated movement mimics the natural behavior of prey, enticing even the most reluctant fish to strike.

The choice between a 60 and 90-degree jig shank depends on the fishing conditions. A 60-degree shank offers a more subtle presentation, ideal for mid column or when fish are wary. On the other hand, a 90-degree shank creates a more aggressive jigging action, and perfect for near bottom fishing applications. 

Materials that Matter: Spawn Simi Seal and Marabou

The simplicity of the Steamboat Island Leech's design is part of its charm. The fly is predominantly made of Spawn Simi Seal, a material known for its lifelike appearance and movement in the water. This material provides the fly with a natural, translucent quality that mimics small baitfish or other prey species.

Marabou, another key component, adds to the fly's dynamic action. With every strip of the line, the marabou fibers kick and dance, creating an enticing motion that few fish can resist. This combination of materials ensures that the fly remains effective in various water conditions and for multiple species.

Versatility Across Species and Waters

While the Steamboat Island Leech was crafted with Sea Run Cutthroat in mind, its applications are nearly limitless. Anglers have shown us success with this pattern for a plethora of species, including trout, bass, salmon, and various saltwater game fish. Its effectiveness in both freshwater and saltwater environments speaks to its versatility.

The stinger-style hook is another feature that enhances the fly's performance. Designed to grab those short strikes, it ensures a secure hookset, reducing the chances of losing fish. This makes the Steamboat Island Leech not only a versatile but also a reliable choice for anglers.

Endless Customization: Hundreds of Color Combos

One of the joys of the Steamboat Island Leech is its adaptability in terms of color. With hundreds of color combinations available, anglers can customize their flies to match the specific conditions and target species. Whether you prefer natural tones to imitate local prey or vibrant colors to stand out in murky waters, there is a Steamboat Island Leech variation that fits your needs.

Conclusion: A Must-Have in Every Angler's Box

The Steamboat Island Leech is a testament to the power of simplicity coupled with effective materials and innovative design. Its articulated movement on a spawn jig shank, combined with the tried-and-true Spawn Simi Seal and marabou, make it a go-to pattern for countless species. Whether you're targeting Sea Run Cutthroat in Puget Sound or exploring new waters, this fly should be a staple in your collection. With its proven success and endless customization options, the Steamboat Island Leech is truly a fly for all seasons and species.
