Copper Prince Red & Silver Beadhead Trout Fly

from the Turrall Bead Head Nymph Trout Fly Collection.

The Copper Prince Red & Silver Beadhead Trout Fly is a modern twist on the classic Prince Nymph, renowned for its effectiveness in enticing trout. This fly features a striking combination of red and silver, with a beadhead that ensures it sinks quickly to reach feeding fish. The design includes biot tails and a peacock herl body, mimicking aquatic insects. Its origins trace back to the 1930s, credited to Doug Prince, who crafted it to imitate stonefly nymphs. Perfect for clear and fast-moving waters, this fly is a must-have for anglers seeking to enhance their catch rate with a proven pattern..

Copper Prince Red & Silver Beadhead Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Copper Prince Red & Silver Beadhead Trout Fishing Fly is best utilised in fast-flowing streams and rivers where its beadhead design helps it sink quickly to reach deeper waters. To maximise effectiveness, employ a dead-drift technique by casting upstream and allowing the fly to drift naturally with the current, maintaining a tight line for better strike detection.
For added attraction, use a slow, steady retrieve with occasional twitches to mimic the movement of aquatic insects. This fly is particularly effective during mayfly or caddis hatches, and works well when fished near riffles or behind rocks where trout are likely to be feeding.

Key Seasons - when is this

Bead Head Nymph Trout Fly

most effective?
The Copper Prince Red & Silver Beadhead is most effective during spring and autumn when trout are actively feeding. In spring, as water temperatures rise, insect hatches become more frequent, making this fly ideal for mimicking emerging nymphs. During autumn, trout feed aggressively to prepare for winter, and the fly's vibrant colours attract attention in clear waters.
Use it in overcast conditions or after rain when water is slightly coloured, as the beadhead adds weight, allowing it to sink quickly and stay in the strike zone longer.

How does the Turrall Copper Prince Red & Silver Beadhead Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Copper Prince Red & Silver Beadhead fly is designed to mimic the nymph stage of aquatic insects, particularly mayflies and stoneflies, which are a crucial part of a trout's diet. During the nymph stage, these insects dwell near the riverbed, making them accessible and appealing to fish. The fly's beadhead helps it sink quickly, imitating the natural drift of nymphs as they emerge. The red and silver colours, along with the reflective bead, catch the light, mimicking the natural sheen of a nymph's exoskeleton. Fish target these nymphs due to their abundance and nutritional value, making this fly an effective choice for anglers.
