The Beadhead Frenchie Jig is a proven Euro-nymphing essential—simple, fast-sinking, and highly effective across a wide range of trout waters. This modern pattern is a variation of the Pheasant Tail Nymph, featuring a slim, segmented body and a bright hotspot collar that acts as a trigger for selective fish. Tied on a barbless jig hook with a tungsten bead, the Frenchie rides hook point up, reducing snags while staying tight to the bottom where trout feed most actively.
This fly excels in both clear and stained water, performing equally well as a lead anchor fly or as part of a two-fly rig. Its natural tones and flash balance realism and attraction, making it a year-round producer in tailwaters, freestones, and pocket water alike.
Best for:
- Euro-nymphing or tight-line setups for trout
- Deep runs, riffles, and pocket water
- Clear to slightly stained rivers year-round
📌 Pro Tip: Use the Beadhead Frenchie Jig as your anchor fly in a two-fly rig. Pair it with a small midge or mayfly nymph to cover multiple depths and insect stages.
