Meet Region Fishing's 1 Dozen Bead Head Gold Ribbed Hares Ear Flash Back Mayfly Nymphs, a staple pattern tied on the trusted Mustad Signature Fly Hook size 12. This familiar nymph profile is designed to resemble a variety of aquatic nymphs — mayflies, stoneflies, and caddis — with a practical, all-season presence in many streams and rivers. Whether you're targeting keen trout or curious panfish, this fly offers a versatile option you can rely on when hatch activity is uncertain.

Overview

In the water, the bead head contributes weight for a controlled sink rate, helping the fly reach midwater where nymphs often feed. The Flash Back adds a subtle flash to catch the eye as it darts with current, while the gold ribbing provides a hint of segmentation that resembles natural prey. The combination creates a balanced silhouette that holds up across light conditions from bright mornings to shaded riffles. Hand-tied by qualified professionals using premium materials, each fly expresses consistent quality and durable construction that seasoned anglers notice in the field.

Construction and Craft

The bead head, hand-tied body, and Flash Back element are designed to work together: the head adds weight for depth control; the ribbed body creates lifelike patterning; the flash back adds an attractant shimmer. These design choices are meant to perform well under varied flow speeds and water textures. The result is a dependable presentation that can adapt as you mend, pause, and resume hull-speed with the current.

• Bead head for buoyancy and stability
• Gold ribbing for lifelike segmentation
• Flash back to attract attention in varied light

Versatility on the Water

Whether fished as a top nymph to draw bites from above or as a bottom nymph to imitate sinking prey, this pattern adapts to different water types. In calm pools, it can drift with a slow current; in moving runs, the flash and rib pattern help maintain visibility as it mends through the seam. It’s a dependable option when you encounter unknown or mixed hatch activity, offering a natural feel that many anglers associate with productive days on the river.

What’s in the Box

Each 1 dozen is 12 flies designed to cover a range of hatch dynamics. You can select a single hook size for a uniform presentation, or opt for the Assorted sampler that contains 3 flies of each size from 12 to 18.
