Before we talk about the fly - click here to buy it!
The Bear Worm was inspired by a friend of the shop Brad (@flyin_bear on Instagram). We were discussing how to use the hide from zonker strips. He presented an idea, I tied up a couple variants of it and the fly was born. He is credited with the name! Make sure you check out his Instagram page for some beautiful flies!
