Gollon Brothers runs a large-scale live leech program built around a purpose-designed processing and holding system. Our facility is set up to control the things that actually matter — water quality, temperature, and long-term holding conditions — so leeches stay active and hold up over time. Maintaining very cold temperatures is critical, and our system is built specifically around that requirement. It’s a hands-on operation, developed from experience, not theory.

Supported by one of the most extensive leech holding operations in North America, we’re able to handle real volume without sacrificing consistency. Leeches are received, conditioned, and stabilized before they ever leave our facility, so what you get is uniform and dependable.

From there, our exclusive expedited shipping and fresh-chain logistics keep that same level of control in place through delivery. The result is a program built to perform — not just in theory, but in real-world conditions. In a product category where handling defines performance, system and logistics make the difference.

Whether you’re targeting game fish or looking to stock your bait inventory, our leeches are available in quantities to suit your needs. With our commitment to quality and reliable delivery service, you can count on us to supply leeches that enhance your fishing success and satisfy your customers. The leech sizing ranges from small to extra large.
