Beadhead Flashback Pheasant Tail Scud - Green

The Beadhead Flashback Pheasant Tail Scud - Green is a versatile and highly effective fly pattern designed to imitate freshwater scuds, an essential food source for trout in both rivers and still waters. The combination of a beadhead for added weight, a flashback for extra visibility, and the natural pheasant tail fibers makes this fly an excellent choice for targeting trout feeding on small crustaceans and aquatic invertebrates. The green coloration closely mimics the natural hues of scuds found in weedy, nutrient-rich waters.

Crafted with premium materials, this fly is designed to sink quickly into the feeding zone while maintaining a lifelike profile and movement. The beadhead helps it get down to the strike zone, while the flashback adds an enticing shimmer that draws attention from fish in deeper pools and currents.

To fish the Beadhead Flashback Pheasant Tail Scud - Green effectively, dead-drift it under a strike indicator or as part of a nymph rig. This fly performs exceptionally well in tailwaters, spring creeks, and lakes where scuds are abundant. For an added trigger, use short, subtle strips to mimic the movement of a drifting scud.
