Reminds me of the scene in The Bridge On The River Kwai, when they used lit cigarettes to burn off the leeches from the muddy river they were traversing en route to the bridge--just before Commando Major Warden was shot in the ankle by a Japanese soldier- quite a story- I have only used leeches as fishing bait, walleyes seem to really like them.
