Collection: Bead Head Nymphs

Discover premium bead head nymphs at Glenwood Springs Outdoors — must-have patterns for getting down fast and fooling trout in Colorado's swift rivers and tailwaters. Our selection features weighted favorites like Bead Head Pheasant Tail, Bead Head Hare's Ear, Bead Head Prince Nymph, Bead Head Zebra Midge, Bead Head Rainbow Warrior, Bead Head Pat's Rubber Legs, and Bead Head Copper John in sizes #12–#22, with gold, silver, black, and colored tungsten beads for quick sink rates and snag resistance.

These versatile bead head nymphs excel in the deep runs and pocket water of the Roaring Fork River, the technical tailwaters of the Frying Pan, and the varied flows of the Colorado River — perfect for year-round nymphing, high-sticking, or drifting under an indicator in Gold Medal sections. The added weight helps them drift naturally near the bottom where trout feed on mayfly, stonefly, midge, and caddis larvae.

Trusted by local guides and anglers in the Roaring Fork Valley, our bead head nymphs deliver lifelike profiles, durable construction, and consistent hookups in rocky, fast-moving conditions. Available in store at Glenwood Springs Outdoors, 831 Grand Ave, Glenwood Springs, CO.
