Ive seen this fly tied a few times on social media recently, and I thought it looked great. I wanted to give it a try and really like how it turned out. I did make a few changes that I feel made tying it easier and to me it came out looking better. This is basically a hares ear nymph but with a flair. This fancy hares ear fly is very heavy and allows you to get a larger bead on the hook than you normally would be able to. Most of the time when adding a bead too large for a hook, it will pop out of the hook eye because the bead opening on the front is usually larger than the hook eye. But this keeps this from happening since the bead is tied further back into the hook shank and becomes part of the thorax of the fly.
Check out my other RU-vid channel where I do gardening and raise chickens with my kids. Those videos are a bit easier to make so I put out about 1 video per day. So if you want more content from me, and enjoy gardening and raising chickens, then check out that other channel. It's called escaping the daily grind, you can check it out here - / @escapingthedailygrind
