The Beadhead Flashback Pheasant Tail is one of the most popular river trout flies ever tied, and for good reason. It has been fooling trout for generations and still absolutely brains them today.
This version keeps that classic, traditional Pheasant Tail profile, with just enough modern refinement to make it even more effective. The bead head adds a touch of flash, movement and sink rate, while the flashback gives the fly a little extra life without making it look overdone.
Beautifully tied on a high-quality hook from the team at Manic Tackle Project, this is a confidence nymph for rivers, streams and dry-dropper rigs. Simple, proven and deadly.
