The Black Snake or Leech 10 cm is a highly effective, large, articulated-style stillwater lure with a long dark profile. Its movement can suggest a leech, eel-like prey or wounded baitfish and creates a strong silhouette for predatory trout.
Fish it on an intermediate or sinking line with long pulls, strips and pauses. Use strong tackle, vary depth carefully and maintain contact when the fly slows. Fish it with confidence and be ready for the rod to bend.
