BH Red Fox Squirrel — Bead Head Squirrel Nymph Meet the fly that gets down fast and flirts with trout’s curiosity: the BH Red Fox Squirrel. Two sizes, one mission — imitate dinner, provoke strikes, and make your drift look suspiciously natural. AXG Life — Life, Adventure-Ready, even when your only plan is “catch a fish and tell a better story.” Who it’s for (and why it matters) For anglers who prefer clever presentation over bravado. Ideal for stream and river fishermen chasing mayfly nymphs, crane fly larvae, or those awkward emerging caddis moments. If you like your flies to sink quickly and look irresistible doing it, this one’s for you. Key Features & Design Pattern: Bead Head Squirrel Nymph — a variation of Dave Whitlock’s popular Squirrel Nymph Body: Soft hackle body for lifelike pulsing action Bead: Bead head design gets the fly down quickly to where the fish actually live Imitation: Works as an attractor pattern that convincingly mimics mayfly nymphs, crane fly larvae, or emerging caddis Sizes: Available in #08 and #12 Performance & Benefits This fly isn’t showing off — it’s working. The bead head sinks fast so you hit the strike zone sooner; the soft hackle provides subtle movement that screams “easy meal” to trout without shouting “plastic toy.” As an attractor, it’s forgiving when your drift isn’t perfect, and it excels in those awkward transitions where multiple insect stages are in play. Use it when you need to turn stuck weekends into hero stories, or when you're improvising at dusk and every cast counts. Built for practical anglers who enjoy a little edge with their technique — midnight runs, questionable decisions, and good water included. Ready to fish? Toss a few BH Red Fox Squirrels into your box, tie one on, and let the river do the rest. Add to cart and make your next drift the one your buddy brags about at the pub.
