HARE’S EAR FLASHBACK TUNGSTEN

Description

Hare’s Ear Flashback Tungsten is a trusted fly fishing nymph that combines the all-purpose effectiveness of the original Hare’s Ear with added flash and weight for modern performance. It’s coarse, natural-looking hare’s ear dubbing mimics a wide variety of aquatic insects—especially mayfly nymphs and caddis larvae—making it one of the most versatile patterns in any angler’s box.

The flashback wing case adds a subtle shine that suggests an emerging nymph’s wing, helping the fly stand out just enough to catch a trout’s eye. A tungsten bead head gives this version the ability to sink quickly and stay in the strike zone longer—ideal for deep pools, fast runs, and Euro-nymphing techniques.

Equally effective in freestone rivers, spring creeks, and tailwaters, the Hare’s Ear Flashback Tungsten can be fished under an indicator, tight-line nymphed, or used as a dropper in a dry-dropper setup. Durable, natural, and consistently productive, it’s a go-to pattern when trout are feeding subsurface and you need reliable results.
