Prince Nymph
Easily ranked one of the top 10 fly fishing nymphs of all time along with the Hare's Ear, the Zug Bug, and the Pheasant Tail. Very well-defined profile is unmistakable and fish take it with abandon. Generally used in fast water as a stonefly imitation, these nymphs are an attractor that can draw strikes anywhere and can be used in warm-water as well. Color, Peacock. Nymph available in sizes: 8, 10, 12, 14, 16.

"I am in agreement with all opinions stated so far in the review section. It is the everything, anytime, anywhere bug. It supercedes catergories.In fact ,I have a friend in central colorado who fishes nothing but this fly. And in the thirty years I have fished with him he has rarely not caught a fish. I make a regular contibutions to his prince stash on his birthday in May just before the start of the season. If it is not a prince he will give them back. He once got them from a man he worked with who called them the Eagle river special. If you can take credit for that bug, good luck."

Excellent all around nymph,

"I used this nymph from May - September and consistently caught fish with it. And QUALITY fish. I had one day in July where the top water bite was off and it was 100% nymphing. I caught 8 fish that day. The two I caught with the Prince were 15" rainbows. This is my "go to" nymph...usually size 12-14."

"The Prince Nymph is, in my opinion, far and away the best nymph on the market for a vast array of situations. It can be fished in fast whitewater as well as slower moving rivers. A must have for all fly fisherman!"

"Never be without it! A great pattern to use when most of the early season hatches are over. Attach a small bead head nymph (having a single wrap of red or green wool for a body) with about an 18 piece of leader tied to the gap of the Prince Nymph hook. Weight according to depth and flow."
