Pheasant Tail Catgut Nymph

No comments yet

The pheasant tail nymph is probably the most (or top 3) most popular nymphs in fly fishing. It is simple, effective, and mimics a wide range of trout food. I'm not trying to re-invent the wheel on this, just a swap on some materials to add some simplicity while maintaining the effectiveness.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
