Spawn Polliwog Tails deliver durable, lifelike tails with standout motion. At about 2 inches long, they taper at both ends for secure ties and can be cut in half to yield two flies from one tail when tying smaller patterns. Designed for repeatable results on the tying bench and in hand-tied patterns, Spawn Polliwog Tails stay consistent under varied conditions. The 2-inch length and tapered ends promote predictable wind-off and realistic movement, making them a reliable building block for leech patterns, redfish streamers, and tarpon sized presentations.

  • 2 inches long with front- and back-tapered ends for secure ties
  • Cut in half to yield two flies from one tail, boosting tying efficiency for smaller patterns
  • Durable, realistic tails deliver lifelike movement that triggers strikes across a range of waters
  • Ideal for freshwater trout leeches (standard or articulated) and for redfish and tarpon streamer builds
  • Works with common fly tying techniques for clean integration into existing patterns

Great leech tails

As a steelhead guide and fly tyer I'm always trying to get an edge. Years ago, I read some articles on leech patterns and did some research on Leeches. That they are in almost every bit freshwater is a clue. I started fishing leeches 25 years ago and every year tie more as they are a secret weapon. Spawn Polliwog Tails are extraordinary leech tails and can be cut to fit from #12 to #4 Leech Patterns. Not only are they effective on Steelhead but also the bruiser smallmouth entering Lake Ontario Tribs to spawn. As the steelhead are now dropping back to the lake, leech patterns also catch carp, Lake Suckers and an occasional Gar. More evidence on how good leeches' work.
