It's a size 10 jig hook Daichi. Then a dress pin cut to length with a Tungsten bead head. Ice dub Bloody brown dubbing with a little black Maribou tail. If you've never tied a balanced leech just you tube it. I fish it under and indicator near weed beds. Hold on.

Those balanced leeches in that colour will be deadly on most lakes! Nice tie!

Nothing new there. Brian Chan, Phil Rowley and others have been touting balanced leeches for years in a multitude of patterns. Lots of instructional videos on You Tube. Yes, they work and yes, the Diachi 4640 jig hook seems to be a lot better than the Mustad "equivalent".
