've altered the tying of the Coney Leech. I used to make solid wire on the body under the rabbit strip. Now, I am using thin wire and segmenting it for faster tying. I am also tying down only in the middle. This allows for two humps which is more natural looking and gives more rabbit fur for the great action this fly has.
I am also scenting my hands with trout attractant (with added anise for smell and cod liver oil for better adhesion). It will mask any odours on my fingers which might be a turn off for the fish.
I'll tie this along with my traditional Coney and see if it makes any difference.
