Flashback Fur

The Flashback Fur is a versatile nymph that combines a natural fur dubbing body with a flashback wing case — the flash triggers strikes in low light and off-color water while the dubbed body breathes and pulses with every current variation. It’s a reliable searching pattern that imitates a broad range of mayfly and caddis nymphs, and it fishes well year-round in rivers, tailwaters, and stillwaters alike.
