Beadhead Flash Prince Nymph

The Beadhead Flash Prince Nymph is designed to imitate various aquatic insects, particularly stonefly nymphs. This pattern combines the classic Prince Nymph design with the added attraction of a beadhead and flashy accents. The Beadhead Flash Prince Nymph features a slender, tapered body with a distinctive white goose biot tail, peacock herl body, and prominent white wings.

The Beadhead Flash Prince Nymph is an excellent choice when targeting trout and other species that actively feed on stonefly nymphs or other aquatic insects. Use this pattern throughout the year, as stoneflies are present in rivers and streams year-round, with peak activity during spring and summer. The beadhead adds weight to the fly, allowing it to sink quickly to the desired fishing depth. This makes it effective in faster currents or deeper pools, where stonefly nymphs are often found.

Fish the Beadhead Flash Prince Nymph using nymphing techniques. Cast upstream or across the current and allow the fly to sink naturally. Use a combination of slow, controlled strips and occasional pauses to imitate the movement of a nymph drifting in the water. Pay attention to the depth and speed of the water you're fishing, adjusting your leader length and weight if necessary to maintain a natural drift. The flash and realistic profile of this pattern will attract the attention of fish and entice them to strike.
