Green Dean was tied by Salmonfly.Net Contributing Fly Tyer William Lovelace.

Bill's Notes: "This pattern came from my first fly pattern book a claw bound 1970 typed mimeographed copy of Roy Patrick’s Pacific Northwest Fly Patterns."

Webmaster notes: Bill also mentioned that he was inspired to tie this and the Green Giant for the page when he saw the issue featuring Mike Foster's Green Series of flies.
