Pheasant Tail Green Thorax

The pheasant tail has to be one of the top five trout nymphs ever tied on a tippet.This is a classic fly and has proven itself so well; no self-respecting nymph box should be without them. This fly pattern is an excellent mimic of any number of baetis and caddis nymphs and also works great for a general mayfly nymph attractor.This traditional tie is done without a flashback or beadhead to provide a light drift and green thorax on this pattern really makes it stand out, this fly is highly effective if the water is slightly coloured.. Hook sizes #10 to #20
