Description
The Bumble Bee Bead Head is a modern terrestrial pattern that combines the buoyancy of foam, the lifelike motion of rubber legs, and the added weight of a bead head for versatility in various fishing conditions. Designed to mimic a struggling or drowned bumblebee, this pattern is perfect for fishing during the warmer months when terrestrials are active. The bead head allows the fly to sink slightly, making it an excellent choice for targeting fish feeding just below the surface or in calmer waters.
Pro Tip
Use as a Hopper-Dropper Anchor: Fish this pattern as the anchor in a hopper-dropper rig. Its foam body keeps it visible while the bead head helps stabilize the setup and adds depth to your presentation.
