Introducing the Tungsten Bead Head Flash Back Pheasant Tail Mayfly Nymph Fly from Region Fishing — a versatile nymph pattern designed to entice trout and panfish in a variety of conditions.

What makes this pattern stand out is its weight-forward design. The tungsten bead head sinks quickly through the water column, steering the fly toward feeding lanes with less drag. The impressionistic body mirrors a wide range of aquatic nymphs, from mayflies to stoneflies to caddis, giving you a versatile option in murky or clear water.

How to fish it

Use this fly as a top nymph when you want a quick target near the surface, or as a bottom nymph to probe the deeper seams. In rivers with riffles and runs, let the fly sink and then imitate a natural drift. Try varying your retrieve and depth until you find where the fish are feeding.

• Tie on as a top or bottom nymph depending on water depth and hatch activity
• Pair with a strike indicator or slow retrieve in clear water
• Match sizes to hatch conditions and water clarity
• Fish in pools, runs, and along structure where nymphs gather
