I was interested in beads for steelhead, but I didn’t feel I needed to get deep into a new system, when I have a garage full of tackle already. Then I met Loren Dunbar, one of the founders of the Hevi Bead system. Dunbar moved to Eastern Washington from Colorado 18 years ago and started fishing for steelhead. He came not from a tackle background, but from furniture sales and a passion for fly-fishing.
