American Small Batch Graboid

Tied in America, not overseas, this pattern comes fresh off the vise of Alaskan Steelhead angler and tyer John Farmer. The Graboid has become a staple for many anglers all over the world. With 17 species under its belt and counting, the Graboid simply hunts. Versatility is the hallmark of this leech. Fish it on the swing for steelhead and Chinook; or strip it for coho. While being a medium weighted fly, it is easily castable with a weight forward fly line when stripping. When swinging, a Skagit head and sink tip throw it like a dart. There is no right or wrong when it comes to the Graboid.
