The Orange Pine Squirrel Leech brings together the lifelike motion of soft pine squirrel fur with a bold, high-visibility color that triggers aggressive strikes. The flowing zonker strip moves naturally in the water, imitating the undulating motion of a swimming leech or baitfish. The vibrant orange hue makes it especially effective in stained water, low light, or when fish respond to brighter attractor tones.
Durable and versatile, this leech pattern sinks quickly and maintains a natural profile during both slow and erratic retrieves. It’s a proven performer for trout, bass, and other freshwater predators, particularly during fall and early spring when fish key in on larger protein-rich meals.
Best for:
- Trout and bass in off-color or low-light conditions
- Lakes, tailwaters, and rivers with active predators
- Swinging or slow-strip retrieves near structure or depth changes
📌 Pro Tip: Use a short, slow retrieve with pauses to mimic a leech’s swimming rhythm. When visibility is low, the orange color acts as a strike trigger that helps fish locate your fly.
