Fulling Mill Pheasant Tail Flashback - Gold Tungsten Bead

The flashback, built heavier

The same fly as the brass bead flashback, built heavier. Tungsten is roughly twice as dense as brass, so where the lighter version stalls in the current and swings up short, this one keeps digging and reaches the fish holding deep in a pool or tight to the bottom of a run. The pearl back and crystal tail do the same attracting work once it gets there. Buy on the water you fish rather than on the pattern.
