Beadhead Pheasant Tail Nymph
The Beadhead Pheasant Tail Nymph is a popular fly pattern for fly fishing, especially for trout and other freshwater fish that feed on aquatic insects near the bottom of the water column. This fly is often used in nymph fishing, which involves presenting the fly below the surface of the water to imitate a drifting insect.
The BH Pheasant Tail Nymph is yet another variation on the ubiquitous Pheasant Tail Nymph Fly. The beadhead version is one of the most popular nymphs of all time and can be used as a dropper under a dry or in a combo with an unweighted nymph. The addition of the flashback makes this fly show up well off-color water.
When fishing with a Beadhead Pheasant Tail Nymph, it is important to match the size and color of the fly to the insects that are present in the water. This can vary depending on the time of year, the location, and the species of fish you are targeting.
To fish with a Beadhead Pheasant Tail Nymph, cast the fly upstream and let it drift naturally downstream with the current. Watch for any movement of the line or indicator, which may indicate a fish has taken the fly. You can also add a small amount of weight to the line or leader to help the fly sink quickly to the desired depth.
The bead in the Bead Head (BH) Pheasant Tail makes them sink very well and are ideal for fishing deep in lakes. Upstream fishing with this fly and strike indicators is another method of fishing these Trout Flies.
The Beadhead Pheasant Tail Nymph is a versatile fly pattern that can be fished in a variety of water conditions, from slow-moving pools to fast-moving riffles. It is particularly effective in water where fish are feeding near the bottom, and can be used as part of a tandem nymph rig or fished on its own.
Overall, the Beadhead Pheasant Tail Nymph is a highly effective fly pattern that every fly fisherman should have in their tackle box. With the right presentation and a little bit of patience, it can help you catch your next trophy fish.
