Today we are checking out Steve Cullen's take on a Loch Leven fly, the Dawson's Honey Bear! He has big versions and skinny versions of this pattern, today he'll be tying up the skinny version! Ultimately, this pattern is a fish finder ideal early season but worth using as a search pattern year round due to it's size and vibrant colour scheme. Get a few of these tied up and try adding in different coloured bodies and get out catching!
