Went out to Minnedosa Manitoba to try out my luck ,managed to land into a few very small walleye and two smaller northerns, the only two i managed to catch on the fly was the northerns. Small lil scrappy fish and they sure like the the olive colored leech patterns i tied on. You know as i was looking around the edge of the river.
I Noticed a lot of leeches really big ones.So i followed the river down a lil more and it turned into a nice slow flow of a back eddy.
As i fished it I watched the river current gently washing up these huge camo colored leeches. Made me think i sure wouldn't wanna be swimming in that river. So I took the tip of my rod and scooped one out and put it in a container and brought it home and put it into my wifes Koi pond which i had built for her previously that month. The next day i knew when she found it the whole neighborhood did as well All i heard was screams of " hurry hurry theres is a lil snake in my pond kill it kill it !!!!! And the kids were yelling as well.
