flashback pheasant tail
October 23, 2019
If there was one nymph you could fish on every river in the world and probably catch a fish, it would be the Flashback Pheasant Tail. Available with a bead head or bare thread head, this pattern imitates a variety of subsurface mayflies. Larger versions from size 12-14 imitate the Green Drake mayfly, while size 16 and 18 copy the PMD and BWO. Fish this pattern with confidence through pools, runs, riffles and everything else you can think of, it’ll find fish year-round.
