Tungsten Bead Prince Nymph Fly

Tied by Umpqua Feather Merchants.

Fast water, deep holes, large fish, the Tungsten Bead Prince Nymph Fly is a nymph that you can count on to do it all. Taking close inspiration from Doug Prince’s original Prince Nymph, this fly has the classic split biot tail, gold ribbed peacock herl body, white biot wings, and brown hackle, but where it differs is in its tungsten bead head. With the tungsten bead head, you get all of the fish-catching power of the original with the added bonus of quickly getting your fly deep in the water column.

Not quite an imitation of any one bug, the Tungsten Bead Prince Nymph Fly can be fished as a stonefly imitation or just a general searching pattern any day of the year. Most commonly fished in sizes 12-16, the Tungsten Bead Prince Nymph Fly works by itself or in conjunction with another nymph. Tie it on anytime the water’s moving, you’ll quickly find that the Tungsten Bead Prince is a go-to pattern no matter where you end up. 

Sizes Available:

12, 14, 16, 18
