H.L. Leonard flybody selection

Some call them Bottom Dredgers. They are too often over shadowed by the dry fly, but have their place here.

I forgot about these, and with all the great old nymph pictures lately...

These were sold in the 70's, on the flybody extended body hooks. Not sure how these would fare as great fishing hooks with the extended body being so rigid, but they are a nice looking nymph. I'll put up some more pics of the hooks and flies tonight.

I remember those and bought some of the hooks from Leonard. I still have them.
