Fly Details
BH Prince Nymph
The Prince Nymph is one of the most versatile and widely trusted patterns in fly fishing. Its flashy body, white biot wings, and peacock herl make it an excellent attractor that can imitate a variety of aquatic insects. In larger sizes, it works well as a stonefly imitation; in smaller sizes, it can represent caddis or mayfly nymphs. A proven fish-catcher around the world and a must-have in any fly box.

Presentation
This pattern fishes well year-round in a Nymph Rig, especially when presented near the bottom. It can be used as either the lead or dropper fly, but is most often tied on as the larger lead fly to help get your rig down and attract attention in deeper runs.
Fished in tandem with a highly visible dry fly acting as an indicator, this setup allows the nymph to suspend higher in the water column - ideal for targeting trout feeding just below the surface on emerging insects or drifting nymphs. A deadly combination during hatch transitions or in shallow riffles.
