Tungsten Bead Magic Fly

Tied by Umpqua Feather Merchants.

Anytime the word “magic” is in a fly’s name, skepticism can be raised, but when you’re talking about the Tungsten Bead Magic Fly, you’ll quickly find that it has no trouble living up to its title. A great imitation for a nymph, midge, or even an emerging mayfly, the Tungsten Bead Magic Fly does a solid job at imitating a variety of different forage, which makes it the perfect fly when you’re just not sure what the fish are eating. Tied with a tungsten bead means that this fly sinks well, and its ribbed body, dubbed thorax, and synthetic wing allows it to be representative of a number of different food items.

Not quite an exact imitation and not quite a full-blown attractor pattern, the Tungsten Bead Magic Fly falls somewhere in between, and it’s a fly that you can fish in a number of ways--dead drift it, throw on an indicator, grease it and fish it just under the surface film, the Tungsten Bead Magic Fly is truly versatile. Carry it all year long in a few different colors and in sizes 16-20, and you’ll find that the Tungsten Bead Magic Fly will get you into fish whether you’re on a tailwater in the middle of winter or standing in a limestone stream anticipating the first BWO hatch of the year.
