The Beadhead Purple Prince Nymph is a bold variation of the classic Prince Nymph, designed to grab attention and trigger strikes from trout in a wide range of water conditions. With its vibrant purple body, biot wings, and flashy beadhead, this fly offers a high-contrast profile that works especially well in stained water or on overcast days. It imitates a mix of aquatic insects such as stonefly and mayfly nymphs, and also functions as an attractor fly in prospecting situations.
Tied with durable materials, the Purple Prince features a peacock herl thorax, white goose biot wings, and a gold or copper beadhead that helps it sink quickly into the strike zone. The addition of purple adds a touch of visual flair without overwhelming the natural, buggy silhouette that makes the Prince Nymph so effective.
To fish the Beadhead Purple Prince Nymph effectively, use it as the lead fly in a two-fly nymphing rig or beneath a dry fly in a hopper-dropper setup. Dead drift it through riffles, seams, or deep pools where fish are holding low. It’s an excellent choice year-round, particularly when you need a pattern that stands out in challenging conditions.
