Description

The Bead Head Prince Nymph is a general-purpose attractor nymph with a dark peacock body and distinctive white biot wings. Solitude's version is a useful searching pattern for trout and grayling feeding below the surface.

Performance

Dead-drift it beneath an indicator or on a tight-line setup. The bead adds weight, while the contrasting wings help separate the fly's profile from the darker body.

Why we use it

It presents a recognizable insect-like shape without depending on a precise hatch match, useful when several aquatic food sources are available.

Materials

Bead head, peacock herl, biot tails and wings, and hackle.

Hook sizes: 10, 12, 14, and 16. Pattern type: bead-head nymph.
