Gold Rib Hare's Ear - Flashback

Hare’s Ear – Flashback (Standard & Bead Head)

The Flashback Hare’s Ear is a highly effective variation of the classic Gold Ribbed Hare’s Ear Nymph, featuring a reflective flashback wing case for added visibility and attraction. This versatile pattern imitates a wide range of aquatic insects including mayfly, caddis, and stonefly nymphs, making it one of the most dependable searching nymphs in fly fishing.

The added flash can often trigger strikes in deeper water, faster currents, or low-light conditions where a standard nymph may be overlooked. Available in both Standard and Bead Head styles, the Flashback Hare’s Ear is a proven trout producer in rivers, streams, lakes, and tailwaters.
