Long before the Mop fly, Green Weenie or Walt’s Worm; the “Honey Bug” was a very popular fly in central Pennsylvania and beyond. While the original material is no longer made, I have sourced a substitute that is fantastic and of a diameter that allows tying smaller flies than the original. This chenille absorbs water like a sponge and sinks quickly without requiring weight to get the fly down. I have dyed this in some highly useful colors to imitate caddis larva, cranefly larva, inch worms and others. It also ties some nice mini buggers and leeches. Try a few colors!
