The Beadhead Stonefly Nymph - Black is a bold, high-contrast imitation of juvenile stoneflies—an essential food source for trout in fast, cold freestone rivers. The dark body creates a strong silhouette that stands out in deep or slightly stained water, while the beadhead adds weight to help the fly sink quickly into the feeding lane. Its segmented profile, soft-hackle legs, and realistic movement make it a reliable choice when trout are feeding near the bottom or preparing for a stonefly hatch.
Durable and versatile, this nymph excels in fast currents, pocket water, and riffles where natural stonefly nymphs are abundant. Whether fished as an anchor fly or part of a two-fly nymph rig, the Beadhead Stonefly Nymph - Black consistently produces fish throughout the year—especially in spring and early summer when stonefly activity peaks.
Best for:
- Trout feeding on stonefly nymphs in freestones and fast water
- Deep runs, riffles, and seams with heavy current
- Slightly stained or turbulent water needing added silhouette
📌 Pro Tip: Add weight or pair with a tungsten anchor fly to ensure this pattern reaches the bottom—stonefly nymphs live tight to the substrate, and your drift should too.
