Here's a link to the native lampreys in Wisconsin.

The Koch's Lamprey is a local tie. Simple to make. It has a 3" zonker
type tail tied over a matching dubbed body. At the front of the hook
you tie in a pair of lead dumbell eyes. Tand then dub in a band of red
right behind them to represent the gills. The zonker strip is tied at
the front of the hook and then pulled over the dubbed body and
attached again where the hook bend starts.

Thanks George. I never would have known about these critters 'till you
mentioned it.

Still haven't seen any. Probably never will either. But now that I know they
exist, I'll be able to keep an eye open for them.
