Umpqua Mayer's Hot Head Mini Leech - Black (3-Pack)

The Power Combo: Leech + Egg = Trout Trouble

Umpqua Mayer's Hot Head Mini Leech

Built to imitate two of the most irresistible food sources in a trout’s world—leeches and eggs—the Umpqua Mayer's Hot Head Mini Leech is a bold evolution of a proven pattern. Signature tyer Landon Mayer took his already-deadly Mini Leech and supercharged it with a hot pink/orange bead to trigger aggressive strikes. It’s not just about visibility—it’s about provocation.

Crafted with a Krystal Flash body for shimmer, micro pine squirrel wing for lifelike movement, and a durable ostrich herl collar for profile retention in all flows, this fly pulses in the water like a real leech in distress. The addition of a 3/32" hot head bead creates both an egg-like attractor and the extra weight needed to get it down into the strike zone—fast.

If you’re fishing Spring or Fall runs, high flows, or simply searching new water, this pattern is your year-round workhorse.
