Tying the Czeched Out Hare's Ear
This soft hackled Hare's Ear pattern, tied on a jig style hook, is effective and quick fly to tie. The bugginess from the hare's ear dubbing combined with the pink "hot spot" thorax make it irresistible. I typically tie it in a size 14, but it could easily be tied up to a size 8 and down to a size 16. This fly looks great when the body color is changed to olive or black.
