There is no generic "bead head nymph". You can add a bead head to any nymph pattern you want. For example, I just ordered a collection of BHNs:
BH prince
BH nymphomaniac
BH pheasant tail
BH hare's ear
If you want a BH prince nymph, you just slide a bead on the hook, and then tie the prince nymph. Same goes for all the other patterns.

The prince, pheasant tail, and hare's ear are standard nymphs. They are used all over the world. Every basic fly tying book covers them.
I'm sure you can find several Youtube videos for each of them. (I just checked. Youtube is loaded with videos for each of them.)
Thanks,
I know that they are standard nymphs just never tied them, I will go and check youtube later on today. Thanks.

Check this out............. Pat

AC, what are you planning to go after with them?
Allan, get some Mustad S80 hooks for tying nymphs. It's the standard length version of what you've already got.
I've got a cousin that keeps askin me if I'm tied any yet because wants some, I think he is goin to for some coldwater fishin down south of Oklahoma...not sure....What do you normally go after w/ them? Also those flies you sent me, there is one that has a bead on it and has black chenille/yarn as body and tail...I was thinkin bout doin one of those.
