Tungsten Beadhead Pheasant Tail Soft Hackle
Precision meets tradition in the Finham Tungsten Beadhead Pheasant Tail Soft Hackle — a refined evolution of one of fly fishing’s most trusted nymphs. Hand-tied with natural pheasant tail fibers and finished with a supple partridge hackle, this pattern blends the lifelike movement of a soft hackle with the fast-sinking performance of a tungsten bead.
Designed for anglers who demand both beauty and function, this fly cuts through current quickly, delivering a natural drift that consistently tempts trout in clear and pressured waters alike. Whether fished Euro-style, beneath an indicator, or swung through a riffle, it offers unmatched versatility throughout the seasons.
Features:
Tungsten bead for rapid depth and precise control in fast water
Soft partridge hackle that breathes and pulses with every drift
Natural pheasant tail fibers for authentic mayfly imitation
Reinforced wire ribbing for durability and subtle segmentation
Ideal for technical trout, grayling, and selective waters
Why It Works
Tungsten bead gets the fly down fast in deeper or faster currents.
Pheasant tail fibers provide natural mottling and movement that perfectly imitate nymph bodies.
Soft hackle collar pulses in the water, mimicking legs or gills of an emerging insect.
Works exceptionally well during mayfly hatches or as a searching pattern year-round.
Fishing Tips
Dead-drift near the bottom in riffles and runs.
Use as the lead fly in a two-fly rig with a smaller emerger behind it.
Swing it at the end of a drift to trigger strikes from following trout.
Excellent fly for Euro-nymphing setups.
